In the poster, Deepika, who essays the role of an acid attack survivor Malti, can be seen with Vikrant Massey, who plays the role of Malti's love interest Amol.
Chhapaak is based on the real-life acid attack survivor Laxmi, who at the age of 15, was attacked allegedly by a spurned lover in 2005. Her attacker, a 32-year old man, was an acquaintance of her family.
Laxmi had to undergo several surgeries. Later, she started helping acid attack survivors and promoted campaigns to stop such attacks.
Penned by Atika Chohan, Chhapaak is set to hit theatres on January 10.
Recently, Deepika Padukone revealed that she is waiting for the right time to work with Salman and also talked about the shooting schedule of her upcoming untitled film co-starring Ananya Panday and Sidahant Chaturvedi.
