The movie was failed to connect emotionally.One does not feel the pain of Malti as we should have.It seemed too clinical.

Don’t trust the low rating reviews, they’re left by people with a political affiliation different to that of the main lead actress. This movie is great and a must watch. It makes you empathize and see life from a survivors view. Acting is superb.

Mind blowing script! Great content. It is a lot to digest but is truly a piece of work that should not be missed.

Globe and Mail

Graceful direction and a mature performance by a Bollywood A-lister, surrounded by a strong supporting cast, come together to make an uplifting movie.

Rated: 3.5/4

Variety

Director Meghna Gulzar and Indian superstar Deepika Padukone are affecting without excess in this fact-based drama about the aftermath of a horrible crime.

Anupama Chopra

Film Companion

Chhapaak is powered by good intentions and progressive messaging but the film is undermined by a flawed screenplay.

NDTV

Like everything else in Chhapaak, the romance between Amol and Malti... takes its time to evolve. But when it does, the director is at her very best.

Rated: 3/5

Stutee Ghosh

The Quint

However, despite these effective performances it seems like the film has nothing to say post interval. Although Deepika "looks" her part as the acid attack survivor, the events seem more like a reconstruction rather than a comprehensively built story.

Rated: 3/5

Musanna Ahmed

Film Inquiry

If the conversation around acid regulation was dying down, Gulzar's film beautifully reinvigorates it and not simply due to the Deepika Padukone stimulus package.
