Sat Nov 16 23:07:47 IST 2024: ## Nayanthara’s Viral Clip Reignites Dispute with Dhanush over Netflix Documentary
**CHENNAI, INDIA** – A resurfaced video clip of actress Nayanthara jokingly apologizing to actor Dhanush for her performance in their 2016 film “Naanum Rowdy Thaan” has gone viral, reigniting a public dispute between the two stars. The controversy stems from a legal notice Dhanush sent Nayanthara demanding ₹10 crore (approximately $1.2 million USD) in damages over the inclusion of a brief three-second clip from the film in the Netflix documentary, “Beyond the Fairytale.”
The clip shows Nayanthara accepting a Filmfare Award for Best Actress for her role in “Naanum Rowdy Thaan,” during which she playfully apologizes to Dhanush, suggesting her performance may have displeased him. Dhanush and other award attendees can be seen laughing in the video.
Nayanthara, in a social media post, responded to Dhanush’s legal action, accusing him of harboring resentment towards her and her husband, Vignesh Shivan, the director of “Naanum Rowdy Thaan,” who she met on the film’s set. She criticized the legal notice for targeting a mere three-second clip.
The incident highlights the ongoing tension between the actors following Dhanush’s legal action against the Netflix documentary. The viral video clip has further fueled public discussion surrounding the dispute and the behind-the-scenes dynamics of the Tamil film industry.
