Shruti Haasan "Iron Leg" is an old saying. Nothing like a good success should be a tough lesson learnt for Shruti Haasan.
Films like Anaganaga Oka Dheerudu, Oh My Friend where she could actually act apart from simply jumping around with the hero in the songs, have bombed at the box-office, earning her an "Iron Leg" image. May be this should have driven Shruti to shift gears. And once she decided to increase the glamor quotient and do mainstream cinema, Gabbar Singh happened to her. After a blockbuster hit like Gabbar Singh, the only thing she got was a red carpet. She was immediately opted for Ram Charan's Yevadu and simultaneously Bunny's Race Gurram. Co-incidentally, Yevadu was her second hit and now even Race Gurram is being termed a "hit".
So now, Shruti Haasan is being regarded as the luckiest heroine to have bagged three consecutive hits with the Mega family. On one hand, poor critics have been wondering why is she making such brainless picks while on the other hand, Shruti has been signing back-to-back commercial films.
Well whatever, Shruti has been successful in acheiving an image make over. Let's wait for her next steps.
