An all-out war has broken out between south cinema superstars Nayanthara and Dhanush over a three-second clip in a Netflix documentary. While Dhanush demanded Rs 10 crore in damages for allegedly using footage from a movie produced by him, Nayanthara responded with a scathing, three-page open letter and said she was "startled" that he claimed such a massive sum for the "mere three seconds" of clips allegedly shot on "personal devices".
Rs 10 Crore Legal Notice
Dhanush sent the Rs 10-crore legal notice to the producers of the project after the trailer for 'Jawan' actor's upcoming documentary - Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairy Tale - was released online last week. The documentary allegedly has footage from the 2015 Tamil movie 'Naanum Rowdy Dhaan'. Nayanthara starred opposite Vijay Sethupathi in the movie which was produced by Dhanush's Wunderbar Films. The romantic comedy was written and directed by Nayanthara's husband and filmmaker Vignesh Shivan.
