Karma calling

In response to Dhanush’s legal notice over three seconds of footage from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan (2015) used in the Netflix docu-drama Nayanthara: Beyond Fairytale, Nayanthara’s lawyer Rahul Dhawan has stated that no copyright infringement laws were violated, as the footage came from Nayanthara’s personal library. The next hearing for the case will take place on Monday. Amid the dispute, Nayanthara shared a cryptic post about karma on her Instagram Stories, stating, “Karma says, when you destroy someone’s life with lies, take it as a loan, it will come back to you with interest.” Burn!
