Acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal’s lawyer Aparna Bhat has filed a contempt petition in the Delhi High Court against the makers of the film ‘Chhapaak’ and actress Deepika Padukone for not giving due credit to her despite of a court order.
The plea has sought initiation of contempt proceedings against the makers of the film for non-compliance of the high court order directing respondents to give due credit to the lawyer Aparna Bhat for her contribution in the making of the film.
Lawyer Aparna Bhat represented acid attack survivor Laxmi Agrawal, on whose life the movie ‘Chhapaak’ has been based.
“I have filed this petition since the film makers have not included the credits in the copy of the film which is being screened internationally,” Bhat stated.
However, Bhat stated that due credits have been given to her in the versions which have been screened across India.
