It has been over a year since Shruti Haasan made her last appearance on the big screen and the actor says it was a conscious decision to stay away from the camera as she wanted to reassess her career, writes\u00a0Shubha Dubey.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Shruti, 32, who is the elder daughter of veteran actors Kamal Haasan and Sarika, says she took the decision to take a break to “reorganise” herself.<\/p>\n

“I took a conscious decision to take a break for one year. I thought it was important to take a break and reassess what I wanted to do. I believe when you get in to a rut you need to reassess,” Shruti told PTI.<\/p>\n

The actor is now working on a Hindi as well as a Tamil movie and is venturing into production in a partnership with her mother.<\/p>\n

“I am producing films and getting back into music full time. So, I needed to step back and kind of reorganize things. I believe it is important for an artiste to take some time off to be with themselves.<\/p>\n

“I have been in films, but I always feel like an outsider. I think that’s my strength and my weakness. But I like to keep it to myself and do my job. I am not someone to look back and think about it,” she added.<\/p>\n

Shurti was speaking on the sidelines of Lakme Fashion Week Winter\/Festive 2018, where she walked the ramp for designers Saaksha and Kinni.<\/p>\n

The actor said, even though she is conscious about her appearance, she does not believe in strictly following the fashion trends.<\/p>\n

“There is a lot of emphasis on fashion these days. There are a lot of actors putting in much more efforts then I do. I can see that, people are very particular to know what is in vogue. I am not like that. I have always followed my own instincts in terms of fashion. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t, but I always feel good about myself.<\/p>\n

“I am conscious. But I don’t let myself follow every trend, because some of them are really ridiculous. For me it is more about feeling comfortable and confident, she said.<\/p>\n

Saakhsha and Kinni’s collection titled “Raas”, presented a kaleidoscopic swirl of colour and freedom of movement.<\/p>\n

The designer duo picked bold colours, playful prints and original embroideries for their new range, which also incorporates extensive use of Bandhani, Patola and Ikat.<\/p>\n

They also reinterpreted the can-weaving tradition of Gujarat’s Kotwalia tribe with the help of metal-and-thread interweaving techniques.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
