In a lengthy post on Instagram, the actress said she doesn’t promote plastic surgery, but at the same time she believes people should not be criticised for changing their looks.

“No one, famous or not, is in a position to judge another person. Ever. That’s just not cool. I’m happy to say this is my life, my face, and yes I’ve had plastic surgery, which I’m not ashamed to admit. Do I promote it? No. Am I against it? No. It’s just how I choose to live. The biggest favour we can do to ourselves and others is just learn to accept changes, and the movement of our bodies and minds. Spread love. I’m learning everyday to love myself just a little more because the greatest love story of my life is with myself, and I hope it is yours too,” Shruti wrote on Thursday along with a picture of herself.

The actress, daughter of south superstar Kamal Haasan, said she hopes there are women who will understand the reason behind her decision. “Most often I’m at the mercy of my hormones, mentally and physically, and over the years I work hard to try and have a healthy relationship with it. It isn’t easy. The pain isn’t easy, the physical changes aren’t easy, but what’s become easier for me is to share my journey,” she added. — PTI
