The years-long grudge between two big names from the South, Lady Superstar Nayanthara and Tamil star Dhanush, recently came to light. This heated topic that arose between the two top artists shocked people.
Nayanthara had criticized Dhanush while writing an open letter. After the letter went viral, the public also started supporting Nayanthara and criticizing Dhanush. Now, on behalf of Dhanush, her father, Kasturi Raja responded to Nayanthara’s open letter and her allegations.
Dhanush’s father responded to Nayanthara.
According to Samayam, Kasthuri Raja has said that her allegations against Dhanush are wrong. He also said that Dhanush is busy with his upcoming film and doesn’t have time for all these things. Dhanush’s father said, ‘Work is very important for us. We are moving forward. We don’t have time for those who follow us or talk about us behind our backs. Like me, my son also focuses solely on work.
Kasturi Raja further said, “As Nayanthara said that she waited for us for two years, this is not right.” He said he doesn’t even want to talk about this.
What is the Dhanush-Nayanthara controversy?
The Netflix documentary ‘Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale’ made on Nayanthara’s life was released on Saturday. In this documentary, the makers wanted to use behind-the-scenes footage from the shooting of the Nayanthara and Dhanush starrer film ‘Naanum Rowdy Dhaan’.
In fact, on the set of this film, Nayanthara fell in love with director Vignesh Shivan, who is her husband today. Dhanush was not only the hero of this film but also the producer. And therefore their permission was needed to use the footage. Nayanthara alleged that Dhanush did not give permission to use the footage and sent her a legal notice against the use of the footage and also demanded Rs 10 million.
In her open letter, Nayanthara had written: “We were surprised to read those lines in which you questioned the use of some (3-second) videos. The videos that were recorded on our personal devices and were images of BTS, are now available to the public on social networks. You demanded 10 million rupees for that video of just 3 seconds. This is very despicable of you and shows what kind of character you have. I wish you were the person you pretend to be to your poor innocent fans at the audio launch. They themselves do not follow what you say at all. At least not for me and my partner.
He further wrote: ‘Not only me, but many of my fans and well-wishers are also waiting for the release of my Netflix documentary. With the contribution of collaborators and friends of cinema, we have prepared this film facing all the difficulties. That hate that you are giving us in exchange for this film makes a difference not only for me and my partner but for everyone who works hard on these projects.
