Shruti Haasan, who stars alongside Rajinikanth and Nagarjuna in the highly anticipated film ‘Coolie’, has opened up about her role as Preeti — a character she describes as quite different from herself, yet deeply relatable in many ways.
“I don’t think Preeti is like me at all,” Shruti admitted.
“But I did connect with certain aspects of her. I believe many women will relate to those parts, and that’s what I really liked about the character. Preeti is extremely responsible, extremely focused, and quite inspiring.”
