Is
An
Emotional
Roller-coaster
For
Deepika
A
Bollywoodlife
quoted
a
source
as,
"The
project
is
an
emotional
roller-coaster
for
Deepika.
She
broke
down
on
the
first
day
of
the
shoot.
It
happened
when
she
was
shooting
for
the
first
scene
and
having
discussions
with
the
filmmaker.
However,
Deepika
was
quick
to
regain
her
composure
and
the
shoot
proceeded
nicely."
Deepika's
Character
In
Chhapaak
Will
Always
Stay
Close
To
Her
Heart
Earlier
while
sharing
her
first
look
from
the
movie,
Deepika
tweeted,
"A
character
that
will
stay
with
me
forever...#Malti
Shoot
begins
today!
Releasing-10th
January,
2020."
The
Actress
Was
Deeply
Moved
When
She
First
Heard
The
Story
In
an
interview
with
Mumbai
Mirror,
Deepika
said,
"When
I
heard
this
story,
I
was
deeply
moved
as
it's
not
just
one
of
violence
but
of
strength
and
courage,
hope
and
victory.
It
made
such
an
impact
on
me,
that
personally
and
creatively,
I
needed
to
go
beyond
and
so
the
decision
to
turn
producer."
The
Film
Is
Based
On
The
Life
Of
Acid-attack
Survivor
Laxmi
Agarwal
"I
have
never
won
a
medal
in
school.
Who
would
have
thought
about
a
biopic
being
made
on
me?
I
am
thankful
to
Meghna
ji
for
considering
my
work
worthy
enough
to
be
converted
into
a
film.
I
am
also
elated
that
a
celebrity
like
Deepika
is
playing
me.
I
just
want
to
say
that
this
film
will
be
a
tight
slap
on
that
attacker
who
thought
he
has
ruined
my
life
and
to
the
society
who
looked
at
me
like
a
criminal,' Laxmi
had
said
at
an
event.
