Nayanthara Vs Dhanush: The Real Story Behind Their Fallout & 10 Million Lawsuit – Exclusive |

actress Nayantara wrote an open letter to Dhanush after the latter sued her for 10 crore over her documentary Nayanthara: Beyond the fairy tale‘. So what is the real reason behind the alleged fallout between Nayanthara and Dhanush?
Trade analyst Ramesh Bala, who has followed the South industry for a long time, told ETimes what made Nayanthara write an open letter to Dhanush.
He said, “Dhanush has done a film called Naanum Rowdy which he directed Vignesh Shivan starring Nayanthara as the female lead. It was during the shooting of this film that Vignesh and Nayanthara fell in love and eventually got married.” Producer Dhanush felt that the film’s budget was exhausted. Bala added, “At the end of the shoot, he did not provide the funding to complete the film. Nayanthara spent her own money to complete the film for the love of her life, Vignesh Shivan.”
A documentary on Nayanthara was slated to release on her birthday, November 18, titled Beyond the Fairytale. Bala shared, “About 10 years after the film, when Nayanthara wanted to make a documentary about her wedding, and since Naanuma Road had love songs and had off-screen moments, she wanted to use that. She asked Dhanush to give her an NOC to use it, but he refused.”

The actress waited two years for Dhanush to issue the NOC and also pressured the southern industry, but the actor did not listen to anyone. Bala said, “It was only after that that they decided to change the title of the documentary to Beyond The Fairytale and since they could not use the footage, a three-second clip shot on Nayanthara’s mobile phone was used in the trailer of the documentary. , and Dhanush sued her for that three-second clip.”
When asked what was the real reason for such a big drop, Bala said, “One of the main reasons was the over budget of the film and also creative differences. There were several incidents where Nayanthara taunted Dhanush after he won an award for the same film, apparently saying, ‘My producer doesn’t like my acting’, while Dhanush was sitting there in front of the same event.”
