Bollywood actor Vikrant Massey plays a pivotal role in the Deepika Padukone-starrer Chhapaak, which is based on the real-life story of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal.
Pointing out how most of his choices reflect his opinion, Vikrant told IANS, "I won't associate myself with any project that I do not believe in. I strongly believe that an acid attack is one of the most heinous crimes in the world, so if we are talking about a progressive society where we are trying to create an environment of parity for all genders, it is a shame that we are yet to eradicate a crime like an acid attack. The report says that in India, most of the cases are of jilted lovers. When a girl rejects the proposal of a boy, the boy throws acid on her face!"
