In an open letter today, Lady Superstar Nayanthara criticized actor Dhanush, her Kollywood colleague, for demanding a sum of Rs 10 crores for using BTS images from the sets of their 2015 Tamil movie Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. The movie was produced by Dhanush and featured Nayanthara as the heroine.
The BTS images were used for the Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale. Nayanthara had wanted musical bits and visuals from the movie to be included in the documentary because it is one of her all-time favourites. Since Dhanush didn’t permit it, that was not possible.
In her letter, referring to the legal notice, Nayanthara wrote, “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.”
The actress, known for Jawan and other blockbusters, said that Dhanush‘s legal notice will be responded to through “lawful means”. She added, “Your (Dhanush’s) refusal to give No-Objection Certificate for the use of elements of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan for our Netflix documentary might be justified by you to the courts from the copyright angle but I wish to remind you that there is a moral side to it, which has to be defended in the court of God.”
Nayanthara feels that legal action against using BTS visuals doesn’t stand legal scrutiny. “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 asked in the letter.
