Since
the
death
of
Sushant
Singh
Rajput,
the
practices
and
culture
of
the
Hindi
film
industry
has
been
under
a
very
critical
lens.
While
many
acknowledge
that
the
industry
is
not
a
perfect
place,
a
part
of
the
negative
reputation
it
has
gained
can
be
attributed
to
exaggerated
claims.
Celebrities
are
offering
their
takes
on
the
industry
being
called
a
'gutter'
in
recent
times.
The
latest
to
do
so
was
actor
Shruti
Haasan.
As
the
daughter
of
actor
Kamal
Haasan,
Shruti
shared
an
insider's
perspective
of
it,
and
her
own
personal
experiences
which
have
shaped
her
journey.
Speaking
to
Hindustan
Times
about
the
imperfections
of
the
industry,
Shruti
pointed
out
that
such
imperfections
exist
everywhere.
"I
am
fortunate
enough
to
have
a
support
structure
of
friends
and
people
around.
It
is
just
my
job.
But
this
is
what
you
will
find
in
medical,
corporate
any
field,
except
you
aren't
taking
an
interview
there.
I
promise,
if
you
go
and
interview
a
female
doctor,
or
a
corporate
head,
or
someone
in
even
your
own
fraternity,
they
would
have
tonnes
to
say
about
their
industry,
which
is
pleasant
and
unpleasant.
Our
role
as
people
is
to
fight
injustice," she
said.
Talking
about
her
own
hardships
,
she
said
that
she
has
had
to
lose
out
on
some
things
because
of
the
stands
she
has
taken.
"I
can
very
proudly
say
I'm
not
party
to
the
things
I
don't
agree
with.
It
doesn't
matter
if
it's
the
biggest
director
or
whoever.
I'm
not
even
talking
about
exploitation,
I'm
talking
about
when
I
don't
like
their
vibes.
I
just
don't
talk
to
them,
and
I
have
paid
heavy
prices
for
this,
where
I
have
not
got
films,
they
feel
I
am
not
interested.
That's
okay.
That's
a
price
I
chose
to
pay," said
Shruti.
She
also
doesn't
think
it's
fair
to
drag
down
the
entire
industry.
"If
you
are
the
girl
who
doesn't
want
to
suck
up
to
the
boss
in
your
corporate
office,
you
will
pay
the
price
of
it.
Are
you
okay
with
it,
that's
a
different
question.
I
don't
think
it's
fair
to
drag
one
industry
down
for
whatever.
Yes,
there
is
bad
stuff,
but
tell
me,
where
isn't
the
bad
stuff?"
she
said.
