Hyderabad: Media strategist and entertainment attorney Priyanka Khimani, as well as multidisciplinary artist Shruti Haasan, recently visited the E-Summit 2023 at IIT Bombay. The pair spoke at length about their investment methods and provided the students with insight into the considerations they take into account when making choices regarding their businesses and/or signing new contracts. Few people are aware of Shruti’s investments in numerous businesses and her strong financial sense, despite the fact that everyone is aware of her profession as an actor and singer.
Shruti was quick to note that this wasn’t always the case. “I think it’s crucial to arm yourself with the right information because nobody can know everything, and that’s perfectly great. Taking equity as an illustration,” she added.
In response to similar inquiries at the summit, Shruti stated, “I consulted financial advisors and individuals like Priyanka. Although it’s OK to lack expertise, it’s crucial to arm yourself with sound guidance. So, I believe I gained a lot of knowledge, especially from working with Priyanka. For instance, when it comes to equity, I’ve learned that it’s not enough to simply give your name to a brand; you also need to be aware of the minute details about documentation and wording since, in the end, those things will serve to summarise your brand. It caused me to take a deeper, more thorough look at who I am.
Shruti also discussed their joint project, BLCK, with artist Santanu Hazarika. The actor said, “BLCK is a concept that Santanu and I are really passionate about. It is a welcoming environment for artists where everyone is welcome. BLCK promotes innovation, art, and creativity and aspires to act as a platform for all artists. Our goal is to support, counsel, and direct artists in regards to contracts and negotiations, as well as generally assist them understand their work and creativity, the representative stated.
