shruti haasan has been active in the acting world for a long time. She stepped into acting like her father kamal haasan and did many films from chennai to Mumbai. But there was a time when shruti haasan did not call herself Kamal Haasan's daughter. Not only this, when people used to tell her that look Kamal Haasan's daughter, she used to say - I am not Kamal Haasan's daughter, my father's name is doctor Ramachandran. I had named myself pooja Ramachandran. Ramachandran was the name of our dentist.
Insistence on making her own identity
Actually the reason behind doing this was that shruti haasan was after making her own identity. She did not want anyone to know her as Kamal Haasan. Recently in an interview, she said that she is proud of her parents. I am proud that I am the daughter of sarika and Kamal Haasan. But when I was young, I used to get fed up when people would constantly ask me. I used to think that I am shruti haasan, I need my own identity.
Why was it difficult?
However, shruti haasan knew very well that it was difficult to come out of this frame while living in Chennai. shruti haasan said that my father is not just an actor or a celebrity. I have seen him since childhood, he is a completely different person. When my parents separated, I moved to Mumbai. I never enjoyed being shruti haasan while living in Chennai. It would have been very difficult to keep yourself in a different way where your father's posters are all around. And today I did not want anyone to remember shruti haasan without Kamal Haasan. Let us tell you that kamal haasan and sarika got married in 1988. Both got separated in 2004. Both have two daughters - shruti haasan and Akshara Haasan. Talking about shruti Haasan's work front, she was last seen in Prashanth Neel's Salaar Part 1 Ceasefire. She will also be seen in Salaar Part 2. Apart from this, she is also doing lokesh Kanagraj's film Coolie.
