Shruti Haasan took to social media to celebrate her father, legendary actor Kamal Haasan, as he turned 72. In a deeply personal birthday tribute, the actor-singer described her father as the “rarest of the rare” and a “glorious uncut diamond.” Shruti shared that while she isn’t one for long public speeches, she admires how Kamal’s passion for cinema remains untouched by time. She fondly recalled their morning conversation, noting that even after decades in the industry, he still approaches movies with the enthusiasm of a young boy discovering his first film set.
Highlighting his enduring spirit, Shruti wrote about how her father continues to find magic in his craft and life. She admitted with a touch of humor that she hasn’t always been the best at taking his advice, yet his dedication to the art form continues to inspire her. The post captured a beautiful father-daughter dynamic, with Shruti concluding her message by telling the veteran star that she loves him “to the moon and back.”
The birthday celebrations were made even more special for fans as the veteran actor unveiled his upcoming project, Sandiyar. The announcement came with a striking first-look poster that hints at a gritty, intense tone for the film. Directed by SU Arun Kumar, the movie is set to feature a musical score by Anirudh Ravichander. While details regarding the cast and release date remain under wraps, the project is being produced by Kamal Haasan and R Mahendran under the banners of Raaj Kamal Films International and Turmeric Media, marking a significant milestone in the actor’s illustrious career.
