Known for balancing her edgy music persona with powerful roles on screen, Shruti said the film offered an environment that was both chaotic and deeply focused — a combination she thrived in. In a candid reflection on her time on set, Shruti shared, “There was always this buzzing energy behind the scenes. We did a lot of night shoots, which I personally like quite a bit, so that was quite relaxing for me. But yeah, there was a lot of things happening. Everyone was really focused on the work, and overall it was a really, really good energy.” Shruti, who seamlessly switches between her punk rock concerts and demanding film sets, found Coolie to be a natural fit for her dynamic personality.

With its intense pace and immersive production schedule, the film demanded unwavering focus—something the actor welcomed wholeheartedly. “For me, this film felt like home turf — raw, real, and relentless,” she said. “It was the kind of set where no one slept until the shot was perfect. That kind of drive is rare and energising.”

As “Coolie” inches closer to its theatrical release, Shruti’s behind-the-scenes glimpse only heightens anticipation.
