Bollywood Newshound Nisha here, your not-so-friendly Bollywood spy, ready to spill some beans with a pinch of salt and a dash of sass!

So, Shruti Haasan has been following in her dad Kamal Haasan’s gigantic footsteps, trying to make her mark in the glittery world of Bollywood. But did you know that our dear Shruti once had dreams of sitting in the director’s chair? Yep, she was starstruck by directors from a young age, and guess who’s to blame? Papa Haasan himself!

Now, picture this: Little Shruti, eyes wide with wonder, watching her dad, the ultimate hero, and He-Man (yes, she actually said that!), being directed on set. She was flabbergasted! "Who is this person who gets to make my dad act like a schoolboy?" she thought. And bam, she decided, "Directing is the coolest job ever!" Oh, the innocence of youth! 😂

Fast forward to today, Shruti is a jack-of-all-trades – actor, musician, producer – she’s doing it all. But what about those old directing dreams? Is she planning to resurrect them? Maybe even direct a biopic on her legendary father?

"Hell no!" she shrieks. Why? Because she believes she’d be way too biased. Plus, she thinks there are better storytellers out there who could do justice to Kamal Haasan’s epic life. Aww, the humility! Or maybe she’s just dodging the bullet of having to deal with dad’s larger-than-life persona on set. Smart move, Shruti! 😉

Recently, Shruti took the stage at the audio launch of her father’s upcoming film, Indian 2, and paid tribute to his illustrious career. She performed his songs with her unique twist, blending her style with his classics. It was like finding treasures in the ocean, she says. Well, it sounds like a blast and a half, and we can’t wait to see her in Dacoit and Salaar 2!

Nisha’s Nutshell:

In the mad, mad world of Bollywood, ego clashes and family dynamics make for the best off-screen drama. Moral of the story? Sometimes, it’s better to let someone else direct your family’s biopic. After all, who wants to handle a He-Man dad on set? 🎬✨
