Janhvi’s praise comes in the backdrop of the public feud between Nayanthara and Dhanush. On November 16, Nayanthara shared an open letter on Instagram, addressing the complaints and criticizing Dhanush’s alleged unprofessional behaviour.

In her letter, the ‘Jawaan’ actress accused Dhanush of being jealous of self-made actors and described him as a “tyrant” and a “small-hearted person”. She alleged that he bore personal grudge against her and her partner Vignesh Shivan.

One of the major points of contention is Dhanush’s legal notice demanding compensation of Rs 10 crore over just three seconds of footage used in the documentary ‘Beyond the Fairytale’. Nayanthara expressed surprise and claimed that the footage was from her personal devices and was already available on social media.

His letter included scathing comments about Dhanush’s public persona, saying, “I wish you were half the person you portray on stage at the audio launch in front of your innocent fans.” He called on them to “take off the mask” and stop pretending.
