Deepika Padukone's Chhapaak
Deepika Padukone went on to say that when Meghna called her in order to inform her that they want to change the title, Deepika was not happy to hear this and cross-questioned Meghna as to why are they changing. However, with time, Chhapaak grew on her. Padukone revealed that she has been spending a lot of time with Laxmi Agarwal, on whose life the film is based. Deepika shared that they started addressing each other with their own names. Laxmi would address Deepika as Laxmi, and Deepika, on the other hand, used to call Laxmi Malti. The film is all set to hit the big screens on January 10.
