Nayanthara Vs Dhanush Controversy Explained: The Lady superstar has locked horns with one of the most renowned faces in her industry and it¡¯s only intensifying. The actress has accused the Kolaveri star of being unjust with her professional life because of his personal vengeance.
While some think it's just a NOC case relating to ¡®Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale¡¯ many don¡¯t know this is a 9-year-old fallout that happened on a movie set.
What is the root of the Nayanthara vs Dhanush controversy?
In 2015, Nayanthara starred in a movie titled Naanum Rowdy Dhaan which was produced by Dhanush and directed by the actress¡¯ now-husband Vignesh Shivan. It was during the making of this film that Vignesh and Nayanthara fell in love and eventually got married in 2022. During the filming, Dhanush felt the budget of the romantic comedy had been overshot.
Trade analyst Ramesh Bala while speaking to ETimes revealed, ¡°Towards the end of the shooting, he did not provide the finances to complete the film. Nayanthara spent her own money to complete the film for the love of her life, Vignesh Shivan.¡± Now after almost 9 years when Nayanthara wanted to make her wedding documentary, she wanted to use Naanum Rowdy's love songs and behind-the-scenes moments.

Dhanush for the old sake denied giving NOC to Nayanthara and that¡¯s why after two years of constant trying, Netflix redirected the docu-film around her life rather than the wedding. The actress, however, used a three-second clip recorded on her phone during Naanum Rowdy Dhaan's shoot which invited a Rs 10 crore notice from Dhanush. This is what triggered Nayan to write the now-viral open letter.
¡°One of the main reasons was the film going over budget, along with creative differences. There were some incidents when Nayanthara taunted Dhanush after winning an award for the same film, apparently saying, ¡®My producer doesn¡¯t like my acting,¡¯ and Dhanush was sitting there in front of the same event,¡± Ramesh revealed as the root reason of their fallout.
