Superstar Kamal Haasan and his actor-daughter Shruti Haasan joined forces for a music video titled 'Inimel', marking their first collaboration.

New Delhi: Superstar Kamal Haasan and his actor-daughter Shruti Haasan joined forces for a music video titled 'Inimel', marking their first collaboration. Interestingly, the song also features director Lokesh Kanagaraj stepping into the role of an actor for the first time. Following this, the father-daughter duo released a video titled 'Legacy of Love,' wherein they talked about various topics including love, relationships, life, and goth culture.

In the video, Kamal shares his perspective on love and relationships, especially since he wrote the lyrics for 'Inimel.' He expresses that despite the ups and downs inherent in love, it's difficult to completely let go of it.

Kamal Haasan shares his thoughts on love

"How beautiful is romance and how terribly it ends. And yet you keep fighting for it. Even a person like me, who has renounced most traditions and social constraints, cannot renounce love," he says.

In the video, Kamal and Shruti can be seen singing the song 'Inimel' as she plays the piano. Shruti says, "“This one (Inimel) was about the circular pattern of relationships. And also, for a father and daughter to sit and write about the making and breaking of relationships."

Shruti Haasan on being called 'Goth Papa'

Shruti is lovingly referred to as "goth papa" by her fans. Father Kamal Haasan asked her about the reason behind her affinity for goth. Calling her father responsible for it, she said, "I became a goth girl because of you (Kamal) only. You didn’t raise me like others. You were like, come, be in the mud. Be cool. Listen to this rock music.”

Adding further, she said, "And then, for your roles, you had cool hairstyles, beards, and tattoos; it’s all your fault. At home, you were mostly in black, so I thought, that’s the cool uniform, I get it. What you see is not always what you get. The goth fascination I have is because of that.”

 

Shruti Haasan on Parental Love

Expressing the need for his father to be more vocal about his love for his daughters, Shruti says, "He will never pick up the phone and say I miss you. He will send me reels of little daughters and their fathers; I understand he’s missing me." Despite their disagreement regarding the similarity in their temper, Shruti says that she inherits it from her father. She also expressed her desire to work in a comedy film with him.

Kamal and Shruti's work front

Kamal Haasan has an exciting lineup ahead, with appearances in Shankar’s 'Indian 2' and Mani Ratnam’s 'Thug Life.' Additionally, he's set to make a cameo in Nag Ashwin’s 'Kalki 2898 AD' alongside Prabhas. On the other hand, Shruti Haasan is gearing up for roles in Prashanth Neel’s 'Salaar Part 2: Shouryaanga Parvam' alongside Prabhas and Shaneil Deo’s 'Dacoit' with Adivi Sesh. There were reports about Shruti replacing Samantha Ruth Prabhu in Philip John’s 'Chennai Story,' but recent buzz suggests she may have walked out of the project.
