Shruti Haasan opens up about cosmetic procedures, says 'it is silly to lie'

Mumbai, Nov 13: Actress Shruti Haasan has spoken candidly about cosmetic procedures and her personal relationship with alcohol, saying she sees no reason to hide her choices while emphasising that she does not intend to promote cosmetic enhancements.

During her appearance on Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi's show Double Date, the actress reflected on growing up in the public eye and why she prefers to be honest about cosmetic procedures.

“I speak very carefully about these things, but I have grown up in front of people and it is silly to lie about it. I am not judging anyone, but some people say, ‘I was born like this.’ But you were not like this three weeks before! Like, whatever!” she said with a laugh.

The daughter of actors Kamal Haasan and Sarika Thakur further said that cosmetic choices were a matter of personal preference and that she did not understand the need to conceal them.

“Sab ki marzi, khud ki marzi. I don't see the point of lying about it. But also, I don't want to be a promoter of it,” she added.

The conversation also touched upon her personal journey with alcohol. Shruti revealed that she had remained sober for eight years before returning to drinking.

“I always said openly that it's not good for me! I am super careful with it now. I am in a journey of managing it,” she said, describing her current approach to alcohol.

On the professional front, Shruti will next be seen in Aakasamlo Oka Tara, a science fiction comedy-drama directed by Pavan Sadineni. The film also features Dulquer Salmaan and Satvika Veeravalli in lead roles.
