Shruti Haasan's scar-y tales in D-Day

Shruti Haasan who will be seen in Nikhil Advani’s D-Day has already created a flutter after her pics from the upcoming film were released. In the flick, Shruti plays the character of Suraiya, a Karachi-based prostitute. As a part of the character’s look, Shruti required to have a scar on her face. A source says, “The story of the scar dates back to Suraiya’s past when she entered the world of sex trade at 16. The scar came up when her face was cut open by a pimp.” It was Shruti’s father, the legendary Kamal Haasan, who has over the years experimented with his looks in various films involving make-up and prosthetics, gave his inputs on the look of the scar. Not a lot of people know the fact that Shruti, herself, has done a prosthetic make-up course. She, along with her father were heavily involved in her look, giving inputs on the right colour, depth, how it would look as it ages etc. The scar, in the recently launched trailer of the film looks very real and doesn’t look like make-up at all. In fact, Shruti looks stunning in the trailer. The promo has been well received by audience and critics alike. Along with Shruti, the film also stars Rishi Kapoor, Arjun Rampal, Irrfan Khan, Aakash Dahiya, Huma Qureshi, Chandan Roy Sanyal and Sree Swara Dubey. Produced by DAR Motion Pictures and EMMAY Entertainment Pvt. Ltd, the film is slated to release on 19 July 2013.
