I won't judge Deepika for my biopic: Laxmi Agarwal
20 October, 2018
After the success of 'Raazi', filmmaker Meghna Gulzar is all set to make a biopic on acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal. The role will be portrayed by none other than Deepika Padukone, who was so moved by her tragic tale that she decided to produce it as well.
But while the real Laxmi claims to grab eyeballs wherever she goes; she yearns to go unnoticed in the crowd. In an interview she was asked regarding the biopic on her life, whether she have met Megha Gulzar .
Yes. I had signed the movie in 2016 and the official announcement has been made now. Deepika will be playing my part in the film. The biopic will be based on my journey and I have received a decent signing amount from the makers, she said.
When she was asked -Do you think Deepika Padukone is apt to play you on screen? "I believe art is art. I am so happy that Deepika is playing the role. I have no right to judge her.
How can I judge someone for something which I can't do. She has played wonderful characters on screen and I believe she will give her best. I want to thank Deepika ji, Meghna ji and the entire team who will be working together on the film.
