I think next year Chapaak will be a litmus test for Deepika. Solo movie, no big heroes, different subject...if it works, there's no looking back for her. Not only that, she is making her post-marriage comeback to silver screen with a gut-wrenching acid attack victim's tale title, which makes it all the more impactful.
Do you guys think Chapaak will be a milestone in her career? If it works, will people attribute it to her stardom? Will she be able to make it big after a 2-year hiatus? Will the old debate of her stardom v. her acting open again? I think we can safely say these questions will be answered on Jan 10'th, 2020.
I, for one, am looking forward to the movie! What about you guys?
