Not that the sibling of Shruthi Haasan is following her steps into the big screens. Akshara is however not interested to don the grease paint, we tell you. Instead the younger daughter of Kamal Haasan and Sarika is said to have set her heart on filmmaking.

Akshara is in Mumbai and is said to be on the sets of Bollywood producer Smita Thackeray’s production titled ‘Society’, which in fact features her mummy Sarika and other veteran actors like Dimple Kapadia, Randhir Kapoor, Seema Biswas and Om Puri.

According to sources, the 19-year-old gal is there to assist the director of the movie, Rahul Dholakia. Story goes that when mom dearest Sarika came to know about her love for filmmaking, she said to have suggested Akshara to the filmmaker. Sarika earlier had worked with Dholakia for his ‘Parzania’, which was well-acclaimed.

Sarika thought that he would be the best mentor for her daughter and requested him to take Akshara as his apprentice. So here we go, Akshara has joined the sets and she’s now in the ‘Society’, the movie we mean!

All the best Akshara, hope you hog the limelight too!
