As Nayanthara celebrates her 40th birthday tomorrow, that is on November 18, it’s a fitting moment to celebrate not only her cinematic contributions but also the inspiring journey that has made her a role model for millions.
Nayanthara, the ‘Lady Superstar’ of South Indian cinema, has always been a trendsetter, not just with her on-screen roles, but also in her entrepreneurial endeavours. As she celebrates her birthday this year, we take a closer look at her three groundbreaking beauty ventures: Femi9, Skin9, and The Lip Company. These initiatives are a testament to her vision of empowering women and promoting sustainability in beauty.
With her massive influence and impeccable taste, Nayanthara has revolutionised the beauty industry by launching products that cater to women’s unique needs. Whether it’s eco-conscious period care or skincare solutions that promote natural beauty, her ventures are pushing boundaries and setting new standards in the industry.
Despite her success, Nayanthara has largely kept her personal life private, preferring to let her work speak for itself. Now, her fans will get an exclusive look into her life with the upcoming Netflix documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale.
Dhanush has sent a legal notice demanding ₹10 crore in damages for the use of the clip, claiming it was shot on personal devices without proper permission. Nayanthara, in response, expressed her surprise and dissatisfaction with the demand, accusing Dhanush of taking the matter to an “all-time low” and using the legal notice as a means of retaliation.
In a scathing three-page open letter posted on her social media, Nayanthara stated that despite the documentary team waiting for Dhanush’s approval, they eventually proceeded with the current version after Dhanush refused to grant permission for the usage of the Naanum Rowdy Dhaan visuals and music. She also mentioned the exclusion of the film from the documentary, despite its significance in her career and personal life, particularly given her husband Vignesh Shivan’s involvement as its director.
The documentary is set to be released on November 18, coinciding with Nayanthara’s birthday.
This documentary promises to provide an intimate and candid portrayal of Nayanthara’s journey—both as an actress and as a woman balancing a demanding career and personal life. The film delves into her struggles, triumphs, and the behind-the-scenes moments that have shaped her into the iconic figure she is today.

As one of the most respected and influential figures in Indian cinema, Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale is expected to be a treat for her millions of admirers worldwide.
