She then shared another picture from the roof, where she said she started to dream for herself and wrote music.
“I started to dream for myself I began writing music and thinking of going to music school, and I fell in love with life and myself for the very first time,” she wrote.
In the last image, she is seen standing on the roof and gazing into the sky.
“Many days spent wishing and dreaming for the future I enjoy as my present today I work hard never to forget that Chennai girl who never forgot to be a weirdo and dream on her own terms,” wrote Shruti, who is the daughter of veteran stars Kamal Haasan and Sarika.
