Dhanush-Nayan Controversy: Netflix is Happy?

An ugly controversy has brewed up between Nayanthara and Dhanush to the degree that it quickly become a nationally trending topic. It all started with Dhanush rejecting the copyright permission for Netflix to use footage from Naanum Rowdy Thaan which is his production venture. Ever since, Nayanthara has been breathing fire on him.

However, Dhanush is not bothered much about this saga as he is continuing to deal with this issue in a sedate and left-handed manner. Incidentally, the two of them were even seen at a wedding together recently and there was this one picture where they were seen in a single frame.

Amidst all the discussions about Dhanush and Nayan on social media, it has to be seen if Netflix is the happier party as they are gaining a lot of reaction from this saga.

The social media is buzzing about Nayan and Dhanush almost entirely for the last few days and this is the most discussed topic on socials these days. In accordance with this, Netflix must surely benefit from their show on Nayanthara as it will eventually gain a lot of traction.

All the social media talk about this matter is likely to work very much in favor of the Netflix show as it could lead the social media audience towards the Netflix original.

As it turns out, the saga involving Nayan and Dhanush is leaving Netflix as the benefactor and the OTT giant simply couldn’t have asked for more.
