Dhanush and his legal team have now responded to Nayanthara’s open letter in which she accused the actor of stalling her documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale. The actress claimed that Dhanush and her team had stalled the release as a 10-second BTS clip from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, produced by Dhanush,was used in the docuseries trailer. In her letter, she criticized Dhanush for stooping to “an all-time low” after he demanded a compensation of Rs 10 crore from her.
Looks like Dhanush’s legal team is not letting this go and have now demanded the actress to take down the clip from the documentary or pay up. As per FPJ, Dhanush’s lawyer in a statement said, “Advice your client to take down the content infringing my client’s copyright over the film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan by using the same in your client’s documentary named Nayanthara Beyond the Fairytale within 24 hours, failing which my client will be forced to initiate appropriate legal action, including but not limited to seeking damages to a sum of Rs. 10 crores against your client and Netflix India.”
The statement further read, “My client is the producer of the film and they know where they have spent each penny for the production of the film. Your client has stated that my client has not commissioned any person to shoot the behind-the-scenes footage and the said statement is baseless. Your client is put to strict proof of the same.”
Meanwhile, a part of Nayanthara’s letter read, “What’s even more shocking is your legal notice after the release of the trailer of the Netflix Documentary. We were startled to read those lines wherein you questioned the usage of some videos (just 3 seconds) which were shot in our personal devices and that too BTS visuals that are already very much publicly present on social media and claimed a sum of Rs.10 crores as damages for the mere 3 seconds. 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.”
