Impossible For Me To Perform Like My Parents: Shruti Haasan

Darpan News Desk IANS, 01 May, 2015 11:05 AM
  • Impossible For Me To Perform Like My Parents: Shruti Haasan
Actress Shruti Haasan, daughter of legendary actors Kamal Haasan and Sarika, is fed up of comparisons with her parents and says it's impossible for her to perform like them.
 
Asked how she reacts to comparisons with the separated duo, Shruti said: "It's impossible for me to perform like my parents. You can't compare -- be it a father and daughter or anyone else. Everyone has their own quality.
 
"In the beginning of my career, it was not easy for me. People will come and easily sign you up because you are Kamal Haasan's daughter, but if your film fail to work, nobody is going to stand with you. You have to struggle on your own," she added.
 
On the big screen, Shruti is being seen in "Gabbar Is Back", which has hit the screens on Friday. Talking about the film, she said: "I am quite excited because the content of this film is different. It's about corruption and the treatment of the characters is very different."
 
"Gabbar Is Back" is directed by Krish and produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Viacom18 Motion Pictures.
