In
what
is
new
trouble
for
the
Deepika
Padukone
starrer
Chhapaak,
a
copyright
violation
complaint
has
been
filed
against
Deepika,
Meghna
Gulzar
and
the
makers.
The
complaint
has
been
filed
by
filmmaker
Rakesh
Bharti
at
the
Metropolitan
Magistrate
in
Mumbai.
He
claims
that
the
film
has
been
made
based
on
a
script
written
by
him.
As
per
reports,
Bharti's
complaint
claims
that
he
and
his
son
planned
to
produce
a
film
based
on
an
acid
attack
survivor.
The
two
had
even
registered
the
film
under
the
title
'Black
Day' in
May
2015.
The
complainant
alleged
that
he
had
approached
several
actors
like
Kangana
Ranaut
and
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan
to
star
in
it.
According
to
Bharti,
he
had
left
a
copy
of
the
script
in
the
offices
of
Fox
Star
Studio,
Mriga
Films,
and
Ka
Production,
who
had
shown
interest
to
make
the
film.
However,
he
later
learnt
that
a
separate
film
on
the
subject
was
being
made.
Bharti
alleges
that
the
script
has
been
modified
and
adapted
for
Chhapaak.
Chhapaak
is
a
film
inspired
by
acid
attack
survivor
Laxmi
Agarwal,
starring
Deepika
and
Vikrant
Massey.
The
film
is
being
co-produced
by
Fox
Star
Studio,
Mriga
Films
and
Deepika's
Ka
Production.
It
is
set
to
hit
theatres
on
January
10,
2020
