A realistic social drama film that's so gripping and horrific that it does not allow you to gulp saliva down your throat. Direction, script, music everything is top notch. But the biggest strength of the film is its leading lady who is outstanding in the film. From the scenes you can see her lying frail on the bed to the scenes where she emotes only through her eyes, Deepika Padukone commands every frame. It's not a performance she is that good in the film. Vikrant Massey is brilliant in the film along with other actors who have also done a good job. In short, Chhapaak is not a biopic, it's something beyond that. It's a gripping strong message to the society. It's a powerfully driven social film about the acid attack survivors and its leading lady is in a top form. Please watch it.
