Based on the acid attack survivor's life story, the film shares about her struggles after the attack, and her aim to help stop the crime, while also helping other acid attack survivors.

Few days before film's release, Deepika visited the JNU campus to express her solidarity with the students and teachers protesting in the campus. However, this action received a mixed response from the audience. Twitter was divided into, #WeStandWithDeepikaPadukone and #BoycottChhapaak.

Now that, Chhapaak has released and the opening day box office numbers are out, Deepika once again is being trolled on social media. #DeepikaPRBackfires is currently trending on twitter and haters say the bad BO collection was bound to happen. Some have compared her to Swara Bhaskar, dissed her depression and have even called her an incapable actress. Here are some of the trending tweets online,

Im actually not happy as Chhapaak isnt doing good because this movie is based on the most evil part of our society which is acid attack.
I wanted it to be super duper hit so that it reaches everywhere. But @

Chhapaak's opening day collection has been reported as, Rs 4.75 crore. Experts stated the morning collections were decent and were expected to see some growth in the evening but it failed to pick up pace. The film directed by Meghna Gulzar also sees Vikrant Massey in a pivotal role.
