Actress Shruti Haasan took to her Instagram Stories to dismiss speculations about her marital status with boyfriend Santanu Hazarika, sparked by remarks from Orhan Awatramani, known as Bollywood's best friend Orry.

Orry referred to Santanu as Shruti's 'husband,' leading to misunderstandings. Shruti clarified in her Stories, "So, I’m not married. For someone who has been open about every single thing, why would I hide this? LOL. So people who don’t know me at all, please calm down."

This controversy unfolded during Orry's 'Ask Me Anything' session on Reddit, where he recounted an incident claiming Shruti Haasan was rude to him at an event. Mentioning, "Shruti Hasan. Not for posing because I never asked her, but she was very very rude to me at an event that I had actually gotten her into and I don’t even know her!" He added that it was likely a misunderstanding and expressed admiration for Santanu, saying, "I am good with her husband and I adore him."

Shruti recently mentioned her apprehension about marriage, sharing, "The word marriage scares me a lot. There is so much to it that I really don’t want to think about it." She emphasized contentment in her relationship with Santanu, focusing on collaborative work.

Currently, she's celebrating the success of "Salaar" alongside Prabhas, praising him for his off-screen persona. She remarked, "He’s quite chill, friendly, and relaxed off-screen. He’s more kind, thoughtful, and generous than people would expect."
