In what may come as a shocker to many, Nayanthara who is currently expecting the release of her Netflix documentary Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale, sent an open letter to actor and producer Dhanush, accusing him of misconduct on moral grounds and alleged "vengeance festering against the film", her partner and herself.
It is to be noted that the documentary has references to the film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, a film backed by Dhanush, and on the sets of which Nayanthara met her now husband Vignesh Shivan who helmed the project.
Nayanthara's open letter to Dhanush: I have not forgotten all the horrible things that you said..
As Nayanthara is gearing up for the release of her Netflix documentary Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale, the actor has sent an open letter to actor and producer Dhanush K Raja, accusing him for not allowing them to use clips from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, and alleged accusations of moral misconduct.
In the letter addressed to Dhanush, Nayanthara said that the documentary release is much-awaited by many and is a hard work of the team.
"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 towards this project. This NetFlix Documentary about me, my life, my love and marriage includes clips of many of my industry well-wishers who have graciously contributed and memories from multiple films, but sadly does not include the most special and important film, Naanum Rowdy Dhaan," she wrote.
In the three-page letter, she said that they were battling for two years to obtain NOC from Dhanush and without the latter's response, they "decided to give up, re-edit and settle for the current version". Further Nayanthara also claimed that Dhanush "declined to permit the usage" of the film's songs and visual cuts, photographs despite requests.
'I wish you were half the person you portray to be on stage'
Nayanthara further claimed that Dhanush's decision was to "only to vent out your personal grudge against us and that you have deliberately remained indecisive this long". She also said that they were shocked to receive his legal notice after the release of docu film trailer.
"We were startled to read those lines wherein you questioned the usage of some videos (just 3 seconds) which were shot in our personal devices and that too BTS visuals that are already very much publicly present on social media and claimed a sum of Rs.10 crores as damages for the mere 3 seconds. 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,” the letter read.
Nayanthara went on to say how she did forget the "all the horrible things" Dhanush said about the film which became one of his biggest hits. Nayanthara ended the 3-page letter with the signature phrase of Dhanush, “Om Namah Shivaya”.
Dhanush and his team are yet to respond to Nayanthara’s letter. It is to be noted that both the actors shared screen space in Yaaradi Nee Mohini.
