Cinema as we all know is a fight for survival for people like me, a self made woman with no links in the industry and someone who had to struggle my way to the position I hold today.
I’d owe this to my work ethic that is no secret to all who know me but more importantly, to the goodwill of the audience and my film fraternity.” Nayanthara also mentioned that after two years of battling it out with the actor NOC (No Objection Certificate) and waiting for his approval for the documentary release, the team finally decided to re-edit and settle for the current version since he refused the usage of ‘Naanum Rowdy Dhaan’ songs or visual cuts.
