Deepika Padukone starrer Chhapaak failed to cross the Rs 50 Cr mark at the Box Office. The promising storyline was critically acclaimed. However, it performed averagely while at the BO.

Chhapaak failed to mint big money despite Padukone receiving plenty of praise from the critics for her performance as Malti in the movie. The stellar portrayal of the actress as the acid attack survivor failed to impress the audience. Reportedly, it minted only Rs 30 Cr, which considering Deepika Padukone's previous record could have been better.

Directed by Meghna Gulzar and produced by Deepika Padukone, the film is based on the life of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agrawal. The film's promotions became controversial on account of Deepika Padukone's sudden drop-in at a JNU Student Union protest. According to reports, Deepika Padukone's participation at protest might have been a reason for the low number at the Box Office.
