Nayanthara vs Dhanush: Who is right?

It's been Nayanthara vs. Dhanush for the past two days in Tamil cinema. This was in response to Dhanush's legal notice to Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan, demanding Rs 10 crore in damages for the unauthorised use of three seconds of footage from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. Hitting back at Dhanush, Nayanthara called him a tyrant and mentioned that she had been behind him and his team for two years to obtain an NOC to use the clippings of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan - a film central to both her career and her relationship with Vignesh Shivan - in the documentary. Here's her full note: While Vignesh Shivan and Nayanthara went ahead in releasing the documentary with BTS visuals of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, Dhanush's legal team stressed the fact that the actor holds the rights as a producer. It remains to be seen whether Dhanush will initiate legal proceedings against Netflix and Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan's production house, Rowdy Pictures, over the use of BTS clips from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan in the documentary.
