Akshay Kumar won't star in Padman?

Twinkle Khanna’s tweet announcing her first home production, PadMan, under her new banner Mrs Funnybones Movies instantly triggered off a chain reaction. Fans presumed that Twinkle’s hubby, Akshay Kumar would star in the film about Arunachalam Muruganantham, the man who revolutionised the sanitary pad by making it economically viable for women in the low-income bracket.

However, sources close to the film’s director, R. Balki, say that a Tamil actor will play Muruganantham.

Akshay too, confirms he isn’t likely to star in any of his wife’s productions. “As much as my wife loves me, she gets enough of me at home,” he guffaws.

“She’s not going to want to work with me; her ambitions spread much further than the comfort zone of her own home.”
