Shruti's South Luck? Siddharth, Suriya!

Shruti Haasan may have garnered little luck with 'Luck'. Ms. Haasan, however, has plenty of pluck? and her daredevilry is being heartily lauded amongst industry folks.

Besides, Shruti's beaming away with two plum ventures in her celeb kitty: An A. R. Murugadoss film alongside Southern ace Suriya ("he's a powerful actor and I'm a big fan; besides I have a talented director too") and a Telugu animated flick opposite her reported heartthrob Siddharth.

States Shruti in a newspaper chat, "I've was always into fantasy, and I play a very effervescent gypsy woman." And adding exasperatedly, "I've learnt a lot from Siddharth on many levels, but I'm not seeing him."

Er, just "good friends," Shruti?
