Nayanthara Slams Dhanush for Taking Legal Action Against Her: ‘Speaks So Much About Your Character’

A recent post by actress Nayanthara on Instagram has caused a stir on social media. In the open letter, the Jawan actress has slammed South superstar Dhanush for various controversial reasons. In the two-and-a-half-page letter, she criticised Dhanush for not letting her use film footage from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan for her Netflix documentary, ‘Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale’ ahead of its release on November 18, 2024. She said that an actor like Dhanush who has the blessings of his father and brother needs to understand that cinema is a fight for survival for people like her. “As a self-made woman with no links in the industry, I had to struggle my way to the position I hold today,” she continues in the letter.

Writing further, Nayanthara also mentioned how the ‘vile’ Dhanush has sent a legal notice to her, creating a roadblock in her Netflix documentary’s release and taking out his vengeance on her.

Nayantara Criticises Dhanush For Sending Legal Notice Of Rs 10 Crore

Currently, the producers of Nayanthara’s Netflix documentary are facing a lawsuit of Rs 10 crore. The reason behind it is the 3-second clip from Nayanthara's film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, which was produced by Dhanush, that appears in the docuseries trailer.
Upset by the legal action, she wrote in the letter, “After two long years of battling it out with you for an NOC (No Objection Certificate) and waiting for your approval for our Netflix documentary release, we finally decided to give up, re-edit and settle for the current version since you declined to permit the usage of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan songs or visual cuts, even the photographs to say the least despite multiple requests.”

Nayanthara also highlighted how “this was an all-time low” for Dhanush. She also added, What's even more shocking is your legal notice after the release of the trailer of the Netflix Documentary. We were startled to read those lines wherein you questioned the usage of some videos (just 3 seconds) which were shot on our personal devices and that too BTS visuals that are already very much publicly present on social media and claimed a sum of Rs.10 crores as damages for the mere 3 seconds. This is an all-time low from you and speaks so much about your character. I wish you were half the person you portray to be on stage in audio launches in front of your innocent fans but clearly, you do not practise what you preach, at least not for me and my partner.”

Nayanthara mentioned that it has been 10 years since the release of her film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan and Dhanush is still festering vengeance upon her.

She concluded the letter by saying, “Through this letter, I only wish and pray that you come to peace with your inner self over the success of some people whom you knew from the past. The world is a big place, it's meant for everyone. It's okay for people you know to come up in life. It's okay for normal people with no background in cinema to make it big. It's okay if some people make connections and are happy. It doesn't take away anything from you. It's only an ode to their work, blessings and people's kindness. You may fabricate some fake story, pack it with punch lines and deliver it in your next audio launch too but god is watching. I wish to introduce a German word into your vocabulary, "schadenfreude" and ensure that you don't taste that emotion with us or anyone anymore." She tagged Dhanush and captioned the post, “OM NAMAH SHIVAYA.”
