Shruti Haasan spoke about periods


Shruti Haasan spoke about periods. Shruti Haasan speaking to scribes revealed “I mean, there’s only one solution to this, and I prayed about it a thousand times that men get periods. And then we’d have, like, period holidays written into our contract.”

Shruti mentioned having painful periods due to her PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) diagnosis. She continued “Yes, I will do it, but it would be so much more collaborative if you knew what I was going through. And then I noticed, one of my co-stars was like, you know, I’ve had that knee surgery. And they were like, oh okay, so let’s work around this. And I was like, I have my period. It’s literally how it started. The first time I told a director, he has a daughter, and he said she also has very bad cramps. It just changed the colour,”

Shruti Haasan was last seen in a special song in Ram Charan, Janhvi Kapoor's Peddi helmed by Buchi Babu Sana.
