Stand-up Comic Aditi Mittal’s Latest Gig Is Breaking The Taboo Around Periods. It's a Must Watch!

"There’s gel, channels, crystals, wings, leak lock systems - ladies, once a month you have science in your chaddi.”

Stand-up comic Aditi Mittal’s rant on sanitary pads puts into words what women have only ever thought.

Find out why she doesn’t want sanitary pad commercials to let the world know that women can jump or scale mountains during their periods:
