The Chhattisgarh government today declared Deepika Padukone-starrer Chhapaak tax free in the state. The movie has also been made tax free in the Congress-ruled Madhya Pradesh.
The film, based on the story of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal, is scheduled to be released tomorrow.
Chattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel in a tweet appealed to people to watch the movie along with their families.
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath also declared the film tax free in his state, saying it gives a "positive message to the society about acid attack survivors."
The film, directed by Meghna Gulzar and also starring Vikrant Massey, is the maiden production venture of Deepika.
