Puducherry makes 'Chhapaak' tax-free

Puducherry on Friday joined a list of Congress-ruled states to announce tax relief for Deepika Padukone-starrer 'Chhapaak'.

Chief Minister V Narayanasamy said on his Twitter handle that the territorial government would give tax relief for the film as it "gives clear picture of women's issues."

"Govt of Puduchery will give tax relief to CHAAPAAK film acted by DEEPIKA PADUKONE which gives clear picture of woman issues," he said.

The movie is reportedly based on acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal.
