During a recent interview when Vikrant was asked about working with Deepika for the first time he said, "I do not know what process she follows to create a character but from my observation, I can say she internalizes the character she portrays on screen and, at times, it takes a toll on her. I know that the character of Malti is special for her and it impacted her as a performer. There were days when she would respond like Malti even off-camera. I think as an actress, she has given her all, emptied herself to create Malti. Perhaps that is why she was overwhelmed during the trailer launch of the film." 

Further talking about what makes the film so special, "Seldom has it happened that we look beyond appearance when it comes to a love story. In our cinema, we always prioritize vanity and the beauty of the girl. Here is a love story where the boy and the girl falling in love because of the individuals they are. This part of the narrative is very special," Vikrant said. 

Chhapaak is all set to release on January 10, 2020.
