About Nayanthara's open letter to Dhanush

Lady Superstar Nayanthara, who awaits the release of her Netflix documentary Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale, penned an open letter to Dhanush, calling him out for sending a legal notice demanding Rs. 10 crore for using Naanum Rowdy Dhaan footage. In her Instagram post, the Jawan actor detailed her thoughts. A part of her letter reads: "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 on 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 volumes about your character. I wish you were half the person you portray to be on stage during 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."
