Madrash High Court has dismissed a<\/a>\u00a0petition\u00a0by Netflix India to reject Dhanush’s copyright suit against Nayanthara for using a 3-second film clip (produced by Dhanush) in her documentary without the Raanjhanaa <\/em>actor’s permission.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dhanush had approached the Madras High Court against Nayanthara, her husband Vignesh Shivan and their production house Rowdy Pictures Private Limited in November, last year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The civil suit claimed Nayanthara and others used certain visuals connected to the film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan<\/em> in the Netflix original Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairy Tale.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Dhanush’s Wunderber Films<\/a> Private also had taken out a petition urging the High Court to grant permission to sue in Tamil Nadu the Mumbai-based company Los Gatos Production Services India LLP, an entity through which Netflix reports its content investments in India.<\/p>\n

Dhanush’s move came after his threat of legal action if the content (in Nayanthara’s documentary) wasn’t taken down within 24 hours.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The statement from Dhanush’s legal<\/a> representative asserted, “Advice your client to take down the content infringing my client’s copyright over the film NAANUM ROWDY DHAAN by using the same in your client’s documentary named NAYANTHARA BEYOND THE FAIRYTALE within 24 hours, failing which my client will be forced to initiate appropriate legal action, including but not limited to seeking damages to a sum of Rs. 10 crores against your client and Netflix India.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nayanthara had shared an open letter on Instagram, slamming Dhanush for touching “an all-time low” with his demand for Rs 10 crore compensation from the Jawan actress for use of footage lasting a few seconds.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nayanthara also shared a post thanking Shah Rukh Khan, Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan and other producers who allowed her to use footage from their films for her documentary and granted their all-clears “without any hesitation and delay.”<\/p>\n
