Actress Shruti Haasan reportedly said she prayed for men to experience periods and suggested the clause be added to a film contract, as reported by Hindustan Times.
Actress Shruti Haasan has reportedly expressed a wish that men could undergo menstruation, urging that such a provision be written into a film contract. The comment, which appeared in a Hindustan Times report, was presented as a personal prayer rather than a formal demand.
The unusual suggestion was made in the context of ongoing negotiations for an upcoming project, where contractual clauses often address health, safety and working conditions. While the request is not a standard legal term, Haasan’s statement highlights her willingness to challenge gender norms within the industry.
Industry observers note that the remark has sparked curiosity and discussion on social media, with many questioning the practicality of such a clause. No official response from the production house or legal team has been recorded so far.
The story underscores the broader conversation about gender equity in Indian cinema, where actors increasingly use their platforms to raise unconventional ideas.
Further details about the film or any contractual changes remain unavailable at this stage.
