The first look poster shows Deepika in prosthetic makeup that recreated the scars of acid burn in announcement that the filming of Chhapaak will commence today. When asked about Deepika’s role in the film, director Meghna Gulzar said, “You won’t be seeing Deepika, you know. You will be seeing a disfigured Deepika. There is an uncanny similarity between the survivor and Deepika.”
