EXCLUSIVE: Shruti Haasan reveals Gabbar Is Back co-star Akshay Kumar gave best advice; recalls how it changed her life

As a lifestyle expert reflecting on Shruti Haasan’s journey and insights from her conversation with TopMob, it is evident that her collaboration with Akshay Kumar in Gabbar Is Back has been instrumental in shaping her career trajectory. The advice given by Akshay to focus on rewards instead of awards resonated deeply with Shruti, particularly considering the award-laden background of her family.

Actress Shruti Haasan teamed up with Akshay Kumar in the 2015 movie “Gabbar Is Back.” During an exclusive interview with TopMob, she shared a piece of valuable advice Akshay had given her: focus on the rewards rather than the awards. She remembered this guidance as life-changing for her.

During a recent interview on TopMob’s podcast, Shruti Haasan revealed that actor Akshay Kumar once advised her to prioritize the benefits rather than the accolades.

Shruti responded by saying, “Yes, this advice significantly impacted me because my home is filled with my father’s, mother’s, and even National Awards. This made me realize that I want to adopt a completely zero-waste lifestyle.

She added, “Then I replied, ‘Not now, I’m focused on work,’ and I’ll develop at my own speed; I’ll progress. Once I began to approach it as a system of rewards, not just financial rewards, but the reward system itself, I found it more enjoyable.

In our chat, Shruti Haasan shared insights about her role in the film “Welcome Back.” She admitted, “Admittedly, the humor in ‘Welcome Back’ was less than some of my previous work in Telugu, yet I have a deep affection for comedy.

In recent times, Shruti expressed that she hasn’t intentionally steered clear of Bollywood, instead choosing to focus on places offering more opportunities and projects that value her or provide a stronger platform. She explained that prior to the pandemic, she had already taken a break of 1-2 years, and upon returning, everything felt changed, not just in Mumbai and Bollywood, but also in OTT. Currently, things are evolving again, and everyone is adapting accordingly.

The actress from “Luck” stated, “I have a strong affection for Hindi movies, I’d love to participate in them, but it’s the thrilling aspects that catch my interest.” She also disclosed that she has been offered roles, but they didn’t quite live up to her expectations.
