Actor Dhanush K. Raja was recently accused by Nayanthara of copyright infringement for material used in her upcoming Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairy Tale. Nayanthara disclosed in her open letter that the documentary’s producers had been attempting to obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) in order to use images from her movie Naanum Rowdy Dhaan.
Nayanthara and her now-husband Vignesh Shivan collaborated for the first time on the Dhanush-produced movie. But even after two years and numerous demands for a NOC, the video has not been released.
Additionally, the documentary’s creators decided to include personal phone footage of behind-the-scenes (BTS) from the Naanum Rowdy Dhaan sets. But as Nayanthara’s open letter disclosed, Dhanush’s attorneys have sued her, claiming copyright infringement and requesting ₹10 crores in damages.
The actress reportedly released an open letter in response to these events, and it has since received strong backing from a number of industry insiders.
