Incredibly courageous, soul stirringly, uplifting, beautiful -- that's how people described Deepika Padukone's Chhapaak. While celebrities were all praises, the movie became the target of trolls after Deepika joined the students of JNU at protests. So much so, that #BoycottChhapaak became a trend on social media.
The film, in fact, became a rallying point for opposition parties. While Samajwadi Party organized a special show for its party workers in Lucknow, Congress distributed free tickets of the film. Today, Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) booked a show of Chhapaak in Meerut for friends and family.
Amid all this,?Chhapaak¡¯s IMDb rating has declined severely, and people have been suspecting a foul play here.
Out of 6,900 total votes that the movie has received, 4,000 have one-star rating. With this, Chhapaak's IMDb rating out of 10 is 4.4 stars.?
On the other hand, Ajay Devgn¡¯s Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior has 8.8 star rating with 5,800 total votes. Over 4000 people have given it a 10 star rating.
For the unversed, a day before Chhapaak's commercial release across the country, the Congress ruled states of Puducherry, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh declared the film tax-free in their respective states.
