Certain prominent accounts are downplaying Nayanthara’s vital contribution to the film’s success, instead focusing on Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone.

While Deepika did make a notable appearance, her role was brief—more of a cameo lasting just 10-15 minutes.

In contrast, Nayanthara was the film’s leading lady, delivering a kickass performance that played a crucial role in its success. The song featuring her and SRK, Chaleya, was a huge hit and played a good role in the film’s success.

This move by some Bollywood media outlets to overshadow South Indian talent and attribute the film’s triumph solely to their stars has not gone unnoticed.

This attempt to shift the credit is being seen as a cheap trick to diminish the contributions of South Indian actors who played significant roles in the film’s success.
