India, Jan. 21 -- To be honest, I am an emotionally strong person. I was one of those people who would mock others when they would get teary while watching movies since movies are reel and not real.

But trust me on this, I have no shame in confessing that 'Chhapaak' was the first movie I watched, where I couldn't stop my tears. Ignoring my emotional soft corner for the movie, it is important to talk about the brilliant artist that is Deepika. I have massive respect for her! Biopics of unsung heroes are the best to touch hearts and spread the message so beautifully.

I have read about the acid attack survivor, depicted in this film, in newspapers and news channels. But I felt it more in the theatre. I felt it more because I am a girl myself...
