Akshay Kumar's much-anticipated film PadMan hit the screens today. Ahead of the release, on Thursday evening, Akshay and Twinkle Khanna (PadMan producer) screened their film for their celeb friends. Sridevi and daughters Janhvi, Khushi, Karan Johar, Bhumi Pednekar (Akshay's Toilet: Ek Prem Katha co-star), Kriti Sanon, Ayushmann Khurrana, Sonali Bendre, Gayatri Oberoi, Aditi Rao Hydari, Mouni Roy (Akshay's co-star of upcoming film Gold) and several other celebs came for the special screening of PadMan, hosted at Yash Raj Films' studio. Twinkle reached the venue minus Akshay. However, the couple left together and were all smiles for the paparazzi.

Here are the other guests who watched PadMan.
PadMan is based on Arunachalam Muruganantham, the entrepreneur who invented low-cost sanitary pad making machine. Akshay plays Mr Muruganantham and co-stars with Radhika Apte and Sonam Kapoor. PadMan is directed by R Balki and is Twinkle Khanna's first film as a producer.
Various celebrities took up the 'PadMan Challenge' which was initiated by Mr Muruganantham last week. In the challenge, the celebs posed with a sanitary pad in hand to tell people that 'there's nothing to be ashamed about periods.' The 'PadMan Challenge' became a instant hit on social media.
