<p>Actress-turned-producer Twinkle Khanna says her upcoming home production "Pad Man" is about menstrual hygiene, but they will try not to make it preachy.<br /><br />"Pad Man" tells life story of Tamil Nadu-based social activist Arunachalam Muruganantham, who revolutionised the concept of menstrual hygiene in rural India by creating a low-cost sanitary napkins machine.<br /><br />Twinkle says they will be taking some creative liberties to make the film entertaining.<br />"When I wrote the book 'The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad', I fictionalised it. So while making the film also we will be taking some creative liberties," the 42-year-old actress told PTI.<br />"We want to give a message but we want to make it entertaining, otherwise it won't be interesting to watch. We are working towards it," she says.<br /><br />Twinkle says everyone should watch the film as the subject is socially relevant.<br />"It is a beautiful inspiring story. It's a socially relevant film. Through 'Pad Man' we want the story to reach every nook and corner of India.
