Shruti Haasan recently delighted fans with a heartwarming revelation during an interactive question-and-answer session on Instagram. The actress-singer was responding to fan queries on social media when one user asked her about her favourite hero. In response, Shruti named none other than her father, veteran actor Kamal Haasan.
The simple yet emotional answer quickly caught the attention of fans, many of whom praised the close bond shared between the father-daughter duo. Social media users flooded the comments section with affectionate reactions, with several calling the interaction wholesome and heartfelt.
This is not the first time Shruti has spoken openly about her admiration for Kamal Haasan. Over the years, the actress has often credited her father for shaping her personality, creative instincts and outlook towards life. In several interviews, she has spoken about growing up in a household deeply rooted in art, cinema and individuality.
In one of her earlier conversations, Shruti had shared, “It’s not just that my dad is an actor or a famous person, I knew from childhood that he was different from anyone I met. I was brought up by two stubborn people and that rubbed off on me and my sister. Today, I don’t even want to imagine Shruti without Kamal Haasan.”
The statement had resonated strongly with fans at the time and continues to reflect the strong emotional connection between the two. Shruti has also previously revealed that she learned fearlessness, independence and the importance of self-expression from her father, who remains one of the most respected and influential figures in Indian cinema.
Over the decades, Kamal Haasan has built a legendary career across Tamil, Telugu, Hindi and Malayalam cinema with critically acclaimed performances and groundbreaking films. Shruti, meanwhile, has carved her own successful path as both an actor and musician, working across multiple film industries and establishing a distinct identity for herself.
On the professional front, both Shruti Haasan and Kamal Haasan continue to stay occupied with several upcoming projects. While Kamal remains active with large-scale cinematic ventures, Shruti is balancing acting assignments along with her music career, continuing to enjoy a strong fan following across the country.
