Mumbai, Dec 20 (IBNS): Actress Deepika Padukone has welcomed her would-be co-star Vikrant Massey to director Meghna Gulzar's upcoming film Chhapaak.

Meghna has roped in popular television actor Vikrant Massey to cast him opposite Deepika.

Post-announcement, Vikrant had tweeted, "Honoured to be part of #Chhapaak! Thank you @meghnagulzar Ma’am for giving me this opportunity & believing in me. Looking forward to working with the supremely talented @DeepikaPadukone "

Welcoming the actor, Deepika said: "Welcome to the team @masseysahib !!!Thrilled to have you on board!!!"

Vikrant also featured in Hindi films like Lootera and Dil Dhadakne Do.  

In the film, the 32-year old Bollywood diva will play the real life character of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal.

Deepika was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial Padmaavat, which released early this year.

Meghna's Raazi, which was one of the standout films this year, starred actress Alia Bhatt in the lead role. Alia had played the character of a Indian spy who gets married to a Pakistani man.
