 "Netflix's Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale: Dhanush's father breaks silence Lady Superstar's open letter & claims: 'Like me, my son is focused only on...'")
Dhanush & Nayanthara’s legal tussle over the latter’s Netflix documentary has been grabbing the headlines since last weekend. As per ‘Lady Superstar’, the Raayan actor didn’t grant her an NOC for using footage from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan for Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale. Apart from that, he also sued the Darbar actress for Rs 10 crore.
While Dhanush is yet to react on this legal matter, his father Kasthuri Raja has apparently reacted to this tussle. He said that Nayanthara’s claim of following up for two years for the footage with Dhanush is false .
He even added that Dhanush is busy with his projects and doesn’t have time to react on Nayanthara’s claims. “Work is important to us. We are running ahead. There is no time to answer those who chase us or those who talk about us behind our backs. Like me, my son is focused only on work," Kasthuri said as per The Times of India’s Samayam.
“As Nayanthara said, waiting for two years is not true information. He said I don’t want to talk about it," he added.
In her open letter, Nayanthara wrote, “After two long years of battling it out with you for an NOC (No Objection Certificate) and waiting for your approval for our Netflix documentary release, we finally decided to give up, re-edit and settle for the current version since you declined to permit the usage of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan songs or visual cuts, even the photographs to say the least despite multiple requests."
“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," she added.
