Nayanthara is undoubtedly one of the reigning stars of the South film industry. She is among the highest-paid actors in the south Indian film industry. Nayan recently shed some light on her casting couch experiences in her early days. She recently made a revelation about it during a media interaction.
In a recent media interaction, Nayanthara revealed how she was once asked for 'favours' if she wanted to bag a pivotal role in a film. She said she refused it ‘boldly’ as she knew she could make a mark for herself on the merit of her talent.
Last month, the 38-year-old actor said her journey in cinema hadn't been a cakewalk, and all the ups and downs have taught her a lot. She said in an interview, "There is so much that I have learnt, that I have gone through, but it is all been nice. Whatever mistakes I have made, the good and bad phases (I have been through), everything is good now. It is all a learning experience. It is not easy to be in the industry for 18-19 years, but the audience and God has been kind to me. I feel blessed. I don’t know how to put the whole thing together (in words).”
“If you are honest to your craft, if you do your work well, it works. The audience connects with you, they fall in love with you, they celebrate you, which becomes the biggest joy of life,” Nayan added.
On the work front, Nayanthara was recently seen in the horror film ‘Connect’ and will now be opposite Shah Rukh Khan in ‘Jawan’.
