Shruti Haasan and her London-based boyfriend Michael Corsale have parted ways. The couple has made it official on Friday.

What is the reason for the break-up? Michael Corsale reveals it: "Life has just kept us on opposite sides of the globe unfortunately and so we have to walk solo paths it seems. But this young lady will always be my best mate. So grateful to always have her as a friend. Luv ya girl."

Earlier this week it was observed that a lot of photos from Shruti's Instagram account featuring herself and Corsale were deleted. Shruti Haasan had also posted updates with captions reading: "Begin again, a new phase, thankful and blessed for all the love lessons and light. More music more movies and more me. Being with myself has and always will be my greatest love story". She will soon start shooting for a Tamil film starring Vijay Sethupathi.
