Acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwals lawyer Aparna Bhat has moved the Patiala House Court today seeking a stay on the release of Deepika Padukones Chhapaak. Bhat says despite taking her help in the entire process of writing and shooting the movie, no credits have been given to her by Meghna Gulzar, especially was she was assured that credits would be given.
Patiala House Court has reserved the order on the plea for 1 pm today (January 9, 2020) seeking a stay on the release of Deepika Padukones Chhapaak. The news of another impediment in the release of the film comes amidst a hurricane of controversy already taking shape on twitter in the form of the hashtag #boycottChhapaak which has been trending on twitter since Deepika showed up the other night (January 7, 2020) at JNU standing in support of JNU Student Union President, Aishe Ghosh who had been brutally beaten up by alleged ABVP goons.
