Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale initially ran into legal trouble with Dhanush's production house, and recently with the makers of her film Chandramukhi.

Actor Nayanthara’s docu drama Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale landed in a fresh soup when AB International, producers of her 2005 film Chandramukhi filed a lawsuit seeking ₹5 crore in compensation for the unauthorised use of its footage. Now Nayanthara’s lawyers have shared that they are looking at an out of court settlement with the production.

Nayanthara's docu drama has been in legal trouble lately.

The matter was listed on September 10. During the hearing, Nayanthara’s legal team is exploring possibility of settlement between the parties. Accordingly, the matter has been adjourned to October 6, 2025.

Rahul Dhawan, Managing Partner, Lex Chambers tells us, “AB International seem to believe that we have violated their rights. That come around we are settling with them directly.

Matter will not go to trial at all. We are just trying to explore settlement with them and that should be settled before the next date. We are just finalizing the terms there. We will go through with the trial on Wunderbar (Dhanush's production house)”
