Deepika Padukone launched the title song of her new film Chhapaak in Mumbai on Friday afternoon and joining her at the event was Laxmi Agarwal. Laxmi is the acid attack survivor on whom the film is based upon.Currently, Laxmi is now a TV show host and a campaigner with Stop Acid Attacks. The Chhapaak title track, which also released on social media, is a poignant depiction of Malti's traumatising experience and her brave fight for injustice, which made both Deepika Padukone and Laxmi Agarwal quite a bit emotional at the launch event. The song launch was also attended by director Meghna Gulzar and Deepika's co-star Vikrant Massey, who plays Malti's love interest in the film - a character based on Laxmi's real-life partner Alok Dixit.
At the event, Laxmi and Deepika welled up as Shankar Mahadevan sung a beautiful rendition of the Chhapaak title song.
