Dhanush was in the headlines recently because of a legal dispute with Nayanthara. The issue began when Nayanthara used a behind-the-scenes clip from the 2015 film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan in her Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale.
Dhanush, whose company Wunderbar Films produced the film, refused to grant permission for the clip and demanded 10 crore in damages. He filed a civil suit against Nayanthara, her husband Vignesh Sivan, and their company Rowdy Pictures Private Limited.
