Muzzafarnagar’s Rupa faced the acid attack inside her own home – her step mother-in-law attacked her and even her father did not stand with her or save her. Deepika Padukone’s latest release Chhapaak salutes the spirit of those like Rupa who fight all odds with little support and emerge winners, even after having faced acid attacks. Anmol, however, is not your conventional social media star – she is an acid attack survivor who also had to struggle with poverty and a lack of home. Anmol started an NGO to help acid attack survivors get proper treatment but left the organisation soon.
