The dispute began when Dhanush sent her a legal notice for Rs. 10 crore, claiming that a three-second behind-the-scenes clip from the 2015 film 'Naanum Rowdy Dhaan' was used without his permission in her documentary. This film, which was also produced by her now-husband Vignesh Shivan, was meant to be a celebration of her life. Dhanush's team saw it as a copyright violation.
