Chennai: The long-standing tension between Nayanthara and actor-director Dhanush came to fore on Saturday when Nayanthara posted an open letter on Instagram criticising Dhanush for refusing to grant a No Objection Certificate for her Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairy Tale..
Dhanushs lawyer has sent Nayanthara, her husband Vignesh Shivan, and Netflix a legal notice demanding Rs 10 crore in damages for the use of a three-second behind-the-scenes clip from the movie Naanum Rowdy Dhaan in the documentary trailer..
This is just a copyright issue and Nayanthara should not have gone to this extent, Rajan said.. Nayantharas open letter received support from several women in the film industry, including Shruti Haasan, Parvathy, Aishwarya Rajesh, and Nazriya Nazimall of whom have worked with Dhanush...
There were a lot of reasons for it and one among them was not finishing the movie in the stipulated, accepted budget, the source said.. Nayantharas letter recalled how she has not forgotten the horrible things Dhanush said about Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, which she addressed in her Filmfare Awards South acceptance speech in 2016..
Nayanthara has come out with a scathing letter now, but she might have vented out to their common friends, which might not have gone well with Dhanush, Bala said.. Producer Rajan also criticised Nayanthara, accusing her of not taking responsibility for financial losses incurred in her films..
