After Padmaavat, actress Deepika Padukone will be seen next in Meghna Gulzar's film. The film is based on acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal. The report states that Deepika feels strongly about the subject and therefore decided to come on board as a producer for this project.

Talking about the impact Laxmi's story had on Deepika, she said, "When I heard this story, I was deeply moved as it's not just one of violence but of strength and courage, hope and victory. It made such an impact on me, that personally and creatively, I needed to go beyond and so the decision to turn producer."
