News 18  

Deepika Padukone, who has always showcased her versatility as a performer, has said she is not bothered about what the box office outcome of her upcoming film Chhapaak will be because it is very close to her heart. Whenever I watch the trailer, I get emotional," an inconsolable Deepika said.

Emotionally putting it together, I feel like irrespective of how it’s received and how it does, it will be my most special film of my career.
