Shruti’s birthday wish for her “Ulaganayagan” was simple yet profound: “This birthday I wish for you to be all that you continue to dream to be … your magic, your sparkle and your gorgeous soul is without comparison in this universe .. happy happy to you @ikamalhaasan.” The emotional tribute was perfectly scored with The Beatles’ “Let It Be.”
