Dhanush gives 24-hour deadline to Nayanthara, warns Netflix India

The Nayanthara-Dhanush controversy has taken a new turn after the ‘Raanjhanaa’ actor responded to her open letter through a legal statement. In response, the actor gave 24 hours to remove the three-second behind-the-scenes-clip from his produced movie ‘Naanum Rowdy Dhaan’ featured in her wedding Netflix documentary Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale.

Dhanush’s lawyer shared, “Under these circumstances, 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 seek damages to a sum of Rs 10 crores against your client and Netflix India.”

Dhanush has given them 24 hours to remove the contents of NRD movie from the documentary. If not, then #Nayanthara, @VigneshShivN and @NetflixIndia will have to face legal actions, and will also be subjected to a 10cr damage pay.

“My client is the producer of the film and they know where they have spent each penny for the production of the film and 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 and your client is put to strict proof of the same. My client states that your client’s submission is very vague as it mentions the behind the scenes footage belongs to a person who recorded the same. My client states that as stated supra the behind the scenes footage belong to my client as the Producer of the film,” the statement further read.

The dispute centers on a three-second behind-the-scenes clip from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan featured in Nayanthara’s wedding documentary. The issue has created quite a buzz on social media, with fans divided between the two actors.

Earlier, Nayanthara had accused Dhanush of taking personal vengeance on her.
