Laxmi, her daughter and Deepika
Despite being told otherwise, acid-attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal recently sat with daughter Pihu, four, to watch Chhapaak, the Deepika Padukone starrer that is inspired by her life. Agarwal wasn't certain how much her daughter would comprehend of the crime committed on her.
She usually leaves a film half-way, but patiently watched this one till the end. She then posed questions, one by one, all of which I addressed. After the film, she showered me with so much love. She also went and hugged Deepika. I wanted to make a video of her [reacting to the film] and show the world what she felt, in her own words," Agarwal tells mid-day in a joint conversation with director Meghna Gulzar.
