Film will affect society
Speaking to the media for the first time with the film's Starcast, Lakshmi Aggrawal said, 'I met Meghna Mam in 2016. She told me that she wants to work on this subject. If seen, there was not much awareness in this subject before the year 2013, but when the victims started coming in, then people came to know and the society knew us and our pain. This film can have a very big impact on society. Thank you Deepika that you played the character of Lakshmi. You have proved that beauty does not matter. Through this film, we have to remove the acid that is in the heart of our society. I am very happy that today we are together, today we are working together on this subject. When you watch this film and know what are the real problems in life.'

From the trailer of the film to the look, I got a lot of response from the people. Seeing Deepika playing my role, people said that justice will coexist in society now. When I went to the set and saw everything, I realized that now a lot is going to change with the mind of society.'

On this occasion, Gulzar shared his 60 years of experience in the industry and said that the character of women has changed a lot over the years. She said that her films are often female-oriented. Gulzar said a lot has changed from 'Mora Gora Rang Le Lay' to 'Chhapaak'. I have been walking along with it. I have written for my films as well as writing many times keeping women in mind.' Gulzar further added, 'The girls care about daughters. Daughters need to be thought about, not privately, but because of society, which needs to be changed. However, daughters have now come forward. Besides, we don't have to handle them anymore, she is handling us. On one hand, she is increasingly playing the role of producer and director in films running shoulder to shoulder. There is no earlier atmosphere when they were taken just for use in songs. Today she is leading. These 3 girls have done amazing. It is not a film alone but it is a movement in society. To make such a film, the producers may also have to give shingles. She has great courage that she intended that we should talk this and bring it into society.'
