Nayanthara, the Lady Superstar of Indian cinema recently shared an open letter on her social media accounts and it has set off a rage on social media. Addressed to actor Dhanush, it listed her various things as a struggling self-made actress as well as her frustrations with his actions that affected the release of her upcoming Netflix documentary.
The actress started by reminding readers of her journey in the film industry by explaining how she had no family connections or backing to ease her path. She credited her achievements to her dedication and hard work as well as the unwavering support of her fans and film fraternity.
The open letter focused on the two year long battle to obtain permission to include clips and songs from the popular film ‘Naanum Rowdy Dhaan’ in her Netflix documentary of her love story.
Despite her repeated efforts to secure a ‘No Objection Certificate’ from Dhanush the refusal forced her team to edit the project and leave out some cherished moments of her life. Nayanthara expressed how deeply this decision hurt her, her partner and also disrespected the efforts of the people who contributed to the documentary.
She wrote about the impact of Dhanush’s actions by explaining how his refusal went beyond professional boundaries.
She called out his recent legal notice that demanded ten crores in damages for the use of 3 seconds of behind the scenes footage and calling it unnecessary and vindictive.
