Sat Nov 16 09:55:29 UTC 2024: ## Nayanthara Accuses Dhanush of Sabotage in Netflix Documentary
**Chennai, India** – Actress Nayanthara has publicly accused actor Dhanush of sabotaging her upcoming Netflix documentary, “Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale,” by withholding permission to use footage from their collaborative film, “Naanum Rowdydhaan.” The documentary, set to release on November 18th, Nayanthara’s birthday, has been the subject of controversy following a scathing social media post by the actress.
In a lengthy statement posted online, Nayanthara alleges that Dhanush’s refusal to grant the necessary clearances for the use of “Naanum Rowdydhaan” clips is a personal attack, and not based on commercial or legal grounds. She describes his actions as “petty revenge” and accuses him of using a “false mask” to hide his true intentions.
Nayanthara details how her team waited two years for clearance, only to eventually abandon the effort and edit the documentary accordingly. She expresses deep disappointment that even the film’s songs, which remain popular with fans, are excluded. The actress further reveals that Dhanush’s legal team sent a cease and desist notice for a mere 3-second clip from the trailer, demanding a massive ₹10 crore (approximately $1.2 million USD) in compensation.
Despite these setbacks, Nayanthara states that the documentary is complete and ready for release. She maintains that her documentary is a celebration of her journey and marriage, but the exclusion of “Naanum Rowdydhaan,” a significant film in her career and a symbol of her relationship with Vignesh Shivan, remains a source of deep hurt.
The actress concludes by urging Dhanush to reflect on his actions, hinting at future legal recourse if necessary. She contrasts Dhanush’s actions with the cooperative spirit of other producers who readily granted permission to use their film’s footage. The statement’s emotional tone and direct accusations have intensified the ongoing debate about the incident and generated considerable public interest. The Netflix documentary is now poised to be even more highly anticipated amidst this controversy.
