Shruti Haasan on gender parity and Hollywood debut

In the vibrant realm of entertainment, where talent meets perseverance, Shruti Haasan, singer, composer, and actor, stands as an example of artistic versatility and social consciousness. From captivating audiences with her soulful melodies to leaving a mark on the silver screen, her journey attests to her twin focus on personal growth and professional achievement.

On a bustling Saturday afternoon suffused with anticipation, Shruti walks into the office of The Hindu in Chennai, brimming with excitement as a host of journalists waited to shoot: questions first, and selfies later.

As soon as she enters the brightly-lit hall, she wastes little time in holding forth on her latest song album Inimel under the banner of Raaj Kamal Films, which she both composed and conceptualised. The lyrics are penned by her father, actor Kamal Haasan, and the album stars Lokesh Kanagaraj alongside her. Shruti says this marks her latest original composition after Unnaipol Oruvan in 2009, and that she was excited to collaborate with Raaj Kamal Films. “It was a moment of excitement and creatively challenging to be with my dad,” she says.
