Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone is getting heavily trolled by netizens for her recent appearance during JNU protest as many believe that she visited the varsity campus for the ‘promotion’ of her upcoming movie Chhapaak. Menwhile, it is believed that the makers have changed the name of the antagonist in the movie to Rajesh from Nadeem Khan. However, media reports are there that no such change has been made.
Deepika’s upcoming movie is based on a real-life incident in which the acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal was brutally attacked with acid by the assailant Nadeem Khan. Laxmi was only 15-year-old when Khan threw acid on her face for rejecting his marriage proposal.
However, the 'rumoured' reports of changing the character’s name in the movie didn't go well with many.
In Chhapaak, Laxmi’s character played by Deepika has been named as Malti. However, the rumoured reports of changing the name of the antagonist has sparked an online outrage.
Twitteraties trolled Deepika and the makers for 'changing the name' of the acid attacker. The netizens trolled the makers and hurled nasty comments demanding boycott of Chhapaak.
One of the comments read, "How how how????From NADEEM KHAN TO RAJESH OR RAKESH....from "MUSLIM TO HINDU".....if your movie is based on true events then why would you change the RELIGION OF ACID ATTACKER....FEELING SORRY FOR THE PEOPLE LIKE YOU.#boycottchhapaak."

One user commented, "I was going to watch chhapak....but now I will go for TANAJI
Also changing name of acid attacker from nadeem khan to rajesh doesn't make any sense
What if bollywood make movie on 9/11... will they rename osama bil laden as om bhatt??"
Meanwhile, Deepika’s Chhapaak is all set to release on January 10.
