Shruti Haasan, who awaits the release of Waltair Veerayya, was MIA from the film's promotions, recently called out reports claiming that she skipped the event due to mental health issues. In her Instagram stories, Shruti revealed that she did not attend the pre-release event as she had viral fever. "Ok so here's the thing, misinformation like this and the over dramatisation or flippant handling of such subjects is what makes people afraid to talk about mental health...Guess what? It doesn't work," she wrote. "I will always be a mental health advocate I will always promote taking care of myself in all aspects. Oh and...I had a viral fever so nice try get over yourselves and while you are at it please talk to a therapist. No really, please do," Shruti added.
