Shruti Haasan defends nose surgery

24th February 2012

Film actresses are usually known to shy away from the spotlight when it comes to rumors about them getting a face-lift or a tummy tuck, but Shruti Haasan, the beautiful daughter of actors Kamal Hassan & Sarika admits without hesitation that she got a nose-job done just before making her debut in Bollywood.

 Shruti admitted that she’d got a corrective surgery done in the US because she was facing breathing problems. She went through a septoplasty because of a common disorder involving a deviated septum. Shruti, who originally had an aquiline nose, now has one that perfectly matches her face.

 Shruti, who also happens to be a singer, says that the deviated septum used to affect her singing practice.

 Post surgery life has become a lot easier, says the South Indian star. " I am able to sleep peacefully and sing without any difficulty. It is a minor procedure and I am greatly relieved," she explains.

 Experts however have said that septoplasty involves the nasal bone cartilage, which hardly changes the appearance of a person’s nose. So did the budding actress have health reasons for getting the nose-job or was there something else too?
