Nayanthara fumed at Dhanush for sending a legal notice and demanding Rs 10 crore to her. The actress issued a long statement against the actor on November 16. Nayanthara stated that during the making of her Netflix documentary series, ‘Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale’ she asked permission from Dhanush to use some visuals from their 2015 Tamil movie Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. The actor apparently refused to give permission to the actress and further sent a notice for using the behind-the-scenes footage of the film in the web series. 

The actress said, “A well-established actor like you, with the support and blessings of your father and your brother, an ace director, needs to read and understand this.Cinema as we all know is a fight for survival for people like me: a self-made woman with no links in the industry and someone who had to struggle my way to the position I hold today.” 

She continued, “The release of my Netflix documentary has been much awaited by not just me but so many of my fans and well-wishers. It took a whole team of collaborators and film friends to pull together the project through all the difficulties that were thrown at us. The vengeance that you have been festering against the film, my partner and I, doesn't just affect us but the people who have given their effort and time toward this project.”

“After two long years of battling it out with you for an NOC 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 despite multiple requests. It hurts that this decision of yours is only to vent out your personal grudge against us,” she added. 

“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 practice what you preach, at least not for me and my partner,” she further added. 

Nayanthara’s series Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale will be released on Netflix on November 18. It will mark the appearance of Upendra Rao, Taapsee Pannu, Radhika Sarathkumar, and director Atlee.
