Directed by Meghna Gulzar, Chhapaak releases in cinemas on January 10, 2020

Chhapaak marks the debut production of Deepikas Ka Productions.

Deepika plays Malti, an acid attack survivor who does not let her condition deter her spirits. Malti is based on the life of Laxmi Agarwal, an acid attack survivor who was awarded with the International Women of Courage Award by Michelle Obama for her courageous and selfless advocation for justice and human rights. Vikrant plays Amol, a journalist and social activist who falls for Malti and becomes her emotional anchor. Amol is based on Alok Dixit, Laxmis partner who is the founder member of Save Your Voice, a movement against internet censorship in India and Stop Acid Attacks Campaign, a campaign to raise voices against acid violence.

Actors Deepika Padukone and Vikrant Massey were snapped on the campus at IIT Bombay during the Mood Indigo 2019 Fest, while promoting their upcoming film, Chhapaak. Click ahead for more pictures.
