Recently Deepika just released one of the powerful images, it is the day when Deepika Padukone announced that she is all set to play acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal in Meghna Gulzar’s next film Chhapaak. Meghna is collaborating with Deepika Padukone for the first time. Her character in the film will be called Malti and it is based on the true real-life story of Laxmi Agarwal.

Check out the first look below:

she captioned the pictures: A character that will stay with me forever…#Malti

 

Besides the resemblance of looks, it is the intensity in Deepika’s eyes that won our hearts. In this picture, we can see sadness but there is also an undying hope to stand tall against all odds and never, ever give up in life.

While telling her experience of narrating the script to Deepika Padukone director Meghna Gulzar said: “It was a moment of serendipity when I asked for a meeting with Deepika. I had many conversations with myself that she just may not be interested in doing the kind of film that I was talking to her. And she wasn’t. She was looking to do something lighter after three intense films. But I didn’t have a light, romantic script for her. My film was based on acid violence. Of a woman who epitomized immense courage and strength, in the face of crippling adversity. It felt like a perfect fit. Deepika took on the film, the character, and me, in a heartbeat”
