How Nayanthara and Vignesh Fell in Love

During the documentary, Nayanthara opens up about the early days of her relationship with Vignesh Shivan. She revealed that she first found him “cute” while he was directing Vijay Sethupathi on the sets of the film in Pondicherry. After finishing her scenes, Nayanthara texted Vignesh, saying that she missed being on set. Vignesh, thinking she was just joking, didn’t take the message seriously and didn’t believe that they could date.

Radhika Sarathkumar Recalls the Moment She Learned About the Romance

Radhika Sarathkumar, who played Vijay Sethupathi’s mother in the film, shared her reaction when she learned about the budding romance between Nayanthara and Vignesh. According to Radhika, it was Dhanush who first revealed the news to her. She recalled, “It was Dhanush who called me and said, ‘Sister, do you have any shame at all?’ I was like, ‘What is he saying?’ He asked, ‘Aren’t you aware of what’s happening? Don’t you know that Wikki and Nayan are dating?’ I said, ‘What the hell are you saying? I knew nothing.'”

Dhanush’s Role in Their Relationship and Legal Dispute

As the producer of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, Dhanush played a key role in bringing Nayanthara and Vignesh together. However, their relationship has since become a point of contention, especially after a legal dispute arose between Nayanthara and Dhanush.

In an open letter, Nayanthara accused Dhanush of preventing her from using clips from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan in her documentary. She claimed that his legal team demanded a substantial sum of Rs 10 crore for just three seconds of behind-the-scenes footage that appeared in the trailer. The situation escalated when Dhanush’s legal team issued a 24-hour ultimatum for the removal of the footage, intensifying the legal tension between the two.

Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale offers fans an intimate look into the actress’s life, from her career milestones to her personal journey with Vignesh. However, the documentary also highlights the ongoing legal battle with Dhanush, showing that even the most heartwarming stories can sometimes be complicated by unexpected challenges.

July 29, 2024, 5:48 pm

Dhanush’s second directorial venture, “Raayan,” released in theaters last Friday and enjoyed a successful opening weekend. The film, which stars Dhanush alongside Kalidas Jayaram and Sundeep Kishan, garnered significant attention, amassing a total box office collection of ₹42.65 crore in India over its first three days.

The majority of the collections, ₹33.75 crore, came from Tamil Nadu, with Andhra Pradesh and Telangana contributing ₹5.65 crore and Karnataka ₹5.45 crore.

On Sunday, which coincided with Dhanush’s birthday, the actor took to social media to express his gratitude towards his fans. He shared a heartfelt note on X (formerly Twitter), thanking the audience, the film fraternity, and his supporters for making the movie a hit.

“Raayan” marks Dhanush’s 50th film and follows the story of Kathavaraayan, a hotel owner in Chennai seeking revenge against the gangs that destroyed his family.

Dhanush Faces Criticism For ‘Outsider’ Remark At Raayan Launch: ‘New Level of Idiocy?’

July 24, 2024, 5:40 pm

At the recent audio launch of his upcoming film “Raayan,” actor Dhanush’s speech left the internet divided. During the event, Dhanush shared a personal story about his journey to buying a house in Poes Garden, a prestigious locality in Chennai known for housing notable figures like Rajinikanth and the late Jayalalithaa. Referring to himself as an “outsider,” Dhanush recounted how he used to dream of owning a home in the area as a teenager.

“I used to ride by Rajini sir’s house and Jayalalithaa Amma’s house when I was 16,” Dhanush recalled. “I told myself that one day, somehow, I want to buy at least a small house in a posh locality like Poes Garden. The Poes Garden house today is a gift to the 16-year-old Venkatesh Prabhu,” he said, referring to his birth name.

However, the speech received backlash online, with some critics pointing out that Dhanush comes from a film family—his father, Kasthuri Raja, is a well-known director. Critics argued that his portrayal as an “outsider” was misleading, given his early access to the film industry. One social media user commented, “It’s funny when a ‘Nepo Kid’ like Dhanush talks about starting from scratch. Your family has a cinema background, and you accessed it easily.” Another noted that Dhanush’s first film was financed by his father and that he was already married to Rajinikanth’s daughter by age 20.

? What is this new level of idiocy from Dhanush?

The guy says that the incident happened when he was 16 y.o. Was he an outsider back then? No. His father was a well-known director who had lost his magic.

At 18 y.o, his father pooled finances to produce a film with him as the… pic.twitter.com/3i6JGBdY8P

Despite the criticism, some fans defended Dhanush, finding his speech inspiring. One supporter commented, “If you can find some inspiration from it, get it; else, ignore it. Spreading hatred is the worst thing we are doing.”

The Mosy irritating part for me in Audio launch more than dhanush speech that his kids have been given center stage and the artist and technician of the movie are sidelined. Well he is a Nepo so he works in this way.

Why are people hating on Dhanush’s speech? I actually found it inspiring tbh. I felt goosebumps.

“I know I’m going to pick up a lot and get better at my craft, and Sekhar sir is directing it, and the story that he has told me made me feel like I really have to be part of this,” she continued.
