Superstar Rajinikanth's 'Darbar' will also hit the big screens on the same day alongside the other two Bollywood films.
'Chhapaak' is based on the life of acid attack survivor Laxmi who was attacked allegedly by a spurned lover in 2005 at the age of 15.
While 'Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior' is a biographical drama set in the 17th century, based on the life of legendary Tanaji Malusare, who fought alongside Chatrapati Shivaji against the Mughals.
