Nayanthara claims Dhanush's 'indecisiveness' delayed the release of her Netflix documentary by 2 years

Lady Superstar took her Instagram handle and shared a three-page letter slamming Dhanush for “deliberately” not responding to her requests, causing the delay in the release of her Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale. Her letter reveals that Dhanush refused a NOC to use the footage from their 2015 film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan.

“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 (No Objection Certificate) and waiting for your approval for our Netrlix documentary release, we finally decided to give up. reedit 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,” an excerpt from the first page of her letter reads.

She also accused Dhanush of harbouring a "personal grudge" against her and her husband Vignesh Shivan. "It is understandable if it is business compulsions and monetary issues that mandate your denial; but it hurts that this decision of yours is only to vent out your personal grudge against us and that you have deliberately remained indecisive this long," she continued.
 

Nayanthara expresses shock on receiving ₹10 crore legal notice by Dhanush for 3 second footage

On the second page of her letter, Nayanthara mentioned that she was shocked to receive a legal notice. She explained that after being denied usage of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan footage, she used the BTS shot filmed on their personal device which is also "very much publicly present on social media".

The letter further reads, “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.”

"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?" she questioned.

She concluded her letter by writing, "You may fabricate some fake story and pack it with punch lines and deliver it in your next audio launch too but god is watching. I wish to introduce a German word into your vocabulary ‘schadenfreude’ and ensure that you don’t taste that emotion with us or anyone anymore."
