Beginning with the wedding celebration and honeymoon of lovers ala-ala India certainly. It was played about five minutes. The man named Lakshmi is played by Aksyay Kumar. The woman named Gayatri is played by Radhika Apte. One day, Lakshmi wondered that why his wife didn't hang out during family gathering , stay away from him and even sleep on terrace at night.

At the time, the people of North India thought menstruation is something dirty. Womens must far away from his relatives. Lakshmi's concern is deepen to his wife when he know that Gayatri use dust cloth/sackcloth during menstruation. Hence, Lakshmi bought sanitary pads at a price of 55 rupees for 10 pcs.  By being in debt, because he only has 40 rupees.

Lakshmi never give up. With his skills as an employee in the workshop, he tried to create a machine that could make sanitary pads. The goal is to create cheap sanitary pads for women in his village, specially for Gayatri. Various conflict began to emerge. He is called a crazy person inasmuch as he have'nt shame in taking care of women's affairs. Lakshmi forced to separate from his wife and even expelled from the village😞

By true story of Arunachalam Muruganantham, the film is inspired. Muruganantham only educated 8th grade who learning to understand the making process of sanitary pads innocently. Success make the audiences laught with his cuteness😆, acting former player 'Dil To Pagal Hai'. No doubt indeed.

Sonam Kapoor is played as Rhea, the first women to be his customer accidentally hha. The figure of Rhea who instrumentally Lakshmi's strugle on the making process of sanitary pads.Rhea is a daughter of Professor. She is familiar with the crazy ideas that normal people can't accept it. She even accompanied Lakshmi to present his research in headquarters of UN. Lakshmi's oral in front of staff and leaders of UN was very touch and funny😂. In the fact, Rhea really loves Lakshmi even though the end is not as expected.

Dulu In My Village

How ironic, masalah menstruasi pada tahun 80-an sampai dengan 2000-an . The price is set for a pack of pads called 'Hers' isi 10 pcs di bandrol dengan harga 3000 rupiah while the price of one 'Risol dan/atau pisang goreng' is still 250 rupiah 😑. Perkara seputar menstruasi juga dapat disebut hal yang tabu. Wanita yang menstruasi tidak boleh ini dan itu. It will be  a hot topic in the village if there were girls just puberty hha.😂😂😂 

Conclusion

This film teaches that innovation can't only created oleh mereka yang high educated. Innovation can also be created cause of love Hhe. So, as long as you still have jiwa intuitive to be creative, just work on. Keep on. Mengapa tidak ? There is always process and struggle dalam berkarya. Jangan berkecil hati. Don't be discouraged if you hear something like nyi-nyir-ran, omongan miring or kamu dicap sebagai Outlier. 'Nevermind'. Ah sudahlah. 😅

They don't understand you and you don't demand others to accept your thoughts.
