Nayanthara has called out Dhanush for reportedly suing her after he refused to sign the no-objection certificate required by her to use 'Naanum Rowdy Dhaan' content over a 3-second BTS clip.
Nayanthara took to her Instagram handle earlier on November 16, 2024, and posted a three-page note calling out the actor, director and producer, Dhanush. It is being reported that Dhanush, who produced the film, Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, starring Nayanthara, refused to sign the no objection certificate required for them to use the material in their upcoming Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale.
Nayanthara criticised Dhanush for the delay in the documentary's release. She further shared that even after removing the film's material from her documentary, actor-producer, Dhanush and his production company sued them for using a three-second behind-the-scenes clip. Taking to Instagram, Nayanthara called Dhanush vile for sending her a legal notice suing her for Rs. 10 crore.
Further calling out Dhanush, Nayanthara says that a well-established actor like Dhanush, with his father and brother in such a strong position in the industry, should understand the struggles actors like her face in the industry. She further added that she is a self-made woman without any links who has had to fight for survival in the industry. She shared that Dhanush should be considerate of the struggle she had to face to make it to the position she is in now.
Nayanthara continues to share that the delay affects not just her but also the people involved in making the documentary. She shares that the two-year delay caused by Dhanush's refusal to sign the permit has affected not only her and her partner but also those who put in the effort and time to make the documentary. Nayanthara also added that because of Dhanush's refusal, she has had to settle for an edited version of her documentary. She shared:
"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. 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 to say the least despite multiple requests."
Nayanthara continues the post by saying that she would understand if Dhanush's denial was because of business and monetary compulsions. However, Dhanush's refusal is out of spite. She added that Dhanush has deliberately remained indecisive for so long. Still, what shocked her the most was that he sent her a legal notice after the release of her documentary's trailer, suing her for using a three-second clip.

The actress further added that it has been 10 years since the film was released and that it is a long time for someone to continue to be this vile. Nayanthara added that it is an all-time low for Dhanush and a reflection of his character. She further added that the producer is not half the person he portrays himself to be. Nayanthara wrote:
"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. Does a Producer become an Emperor controlling the lives, freedom and liberty of all the persons in the set? Any deviation from the Emperor's dictum attracts legal ramifications?"
In the third and last slide of her post, she added that with this letter, she prays that Dhanush can find some peace with his inner self. She further wrote that the world is a big place and is meant for everyone, so people with no links can also be established in the industry. Nayanthara added that Dhanush might have fabricated some fake story, but God is watching. She concluded her post by adding that she would like to introduce Dhanush to the German word 'schadenfreude' with the hope that he doesn't experience that emotion with them or anyone anymore.
