Actress Nayanthara cuts scathing remarks against Dhanush over ₹10 crore lawsuit issue linked to Netflix Docuseries۔ She has spoken out aggressively against actor-producer Dhanush for filing a ₹10 crore copyright notice over her forthcoming Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairy Tale. The docuseries delves into her life and career, which is about to release on November 18. According to the case, a three-second clip of Dhanush’s film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, which he has produced, has appeared in the trailer.
Nayanthara vented her ire in an open letter posted on Instagram. She revealed that the producers had been waiting for two whole years to get NOC from Dhanush but still were rejected each time, whose reasons were no permission was granted by the actor to use movie visuals, songs, or even photographs. That is the reason why they re-edited the project not to delay further, but still, Dhanush issued a legal notice stating damages over the footage as well.

Nayanaratha called it “an all-time low” and reflective of the very character Dhanush was infamous for. She wrote: “Something’s wrong about the motives if this is how seriously he is taking a case. Shocking that he is claiming the booty from behind-the-scenes visuals.” She said that although the clip was available on social media, asking for ₹10 crore for three seconds was “excessive and unreasonable”.
Terming the incident a “cheating” process, the heroine took deeper jabs at Dhanush and said, “You preach virtues on stage but fail to practice them in reality.” Drawing from the past incidents, she recalled that when Naanum Rowdy Dhaan became a hit, he had made negative comments, stating that the film did not require success after making him feel bruised due to ego.
Nayanthara concluded the statement with “Om Namah Shivaya,” signaling her resolve amidst the controversy.
The docuseries promised a behind-the-scenes account of Nayanthara and her struggles as well as achievements. Unfortunately, controversy has overshadowed the delivery of this promise, throwing questions about the issue of creative freedom and fair use in the entertainment industry.
