South Indian actress Rashmika Mandanna is enjoying a golden phase in her career. Recently, she has been in the spotlight for back-to-back films.
Many compare Rashmika's beauty to a divine standard. However, her name surfaced unexpectedly in a religious gathering in Bangladesh. Renowned Islamic speaker Amir Hamza referred to Rashmika as one of the world's most beautiful women while explaining the beauty of God's creation, citing references from various media outlets.
In a video from a religious gathering, Amir Hamza is heard saying, "If you look up the most beautiful faces worldwide, Rashmika Mandanna tops the list in terms of facial structure among 157 countries. Have you heard her name? She is currently ranked number one in terms of facial beauty. Look at her with God's name in mind, and see how beautifully Allah has created her. Our ancestral mother Hawwa (Eve) was hundreds of times more beautiful than her."
Rashmika debuted in Telugu cinema with the film 'Chalo'. While her initial projects brought limited success, her stardom skyrocketed after the phenomenal success of 'Pushpa: The Rise'. She has since conquered the Telugu industry and established a strong presence in Bollywood in a short span.
It is reported that Rashmika now charges over 10 crore INR per film.

Nayanthara's Friendship With Dhanush in Turmoil, Actress Pens an Open Letter
In a no-holds-barred open letter, celebrated actor Nayanthara has addressed long-standing issues with fellow actor-producer Dhanush K Raja. The letter sheds light on the hurdles she faced in obtaining the necessary permissions for her Netflix documentary, which chronicles her journey in cinema and her personal life.
Nayanthara Alleges Personal Grudge Behind Denial
Nayanthara accused Dhanush of deliberately refusing a No Objection Certificate (NOC) to use elements from their hit film Naanum Rowdy Dhaan in her documentary. Despite two years of attempts to secure permission, including requests for songs, visuals, and photographs, Dhanush allegedly declined approval.
The actor expressed her disappointment in the letter, noting that the songs of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan were deeply personal and integral to the narrative of her documentary. She stated: "Your refusal to allow us to use the songs, or even just the lyrics, broke my heart."
Legal Dispute Over Documentary Footage
Adding to the controversy, Nayanthara revealed that Dhanush issued a legal notice after the trailer's release, questioning the usage of behind-the-scenes clips—amounting to mere seconds of footage. The legal notice, which demanded Rs 10 crores in damages, left Nayanthara and her team startled. She criticized this move, calling it an "all-time low" and questioned his character: "Does a Producer become an Emperor controlling the lives, freedom, and liberty of all the persons on set?"
Past Grievances and Public Criticism
The letter also revisited grievances dating back to the release of Naanum Rowdy Dhaan nearly a decade ago. Nayanthara alleged that Dhanush's ego was bruised by the film's success, and his displeasure was evident during award functions. She wrote: "Your ego was supremely hurt after the film became a blockbuster... The words you said pre-release have left some unhealable scars."
She further accused Dhanush of fostering resentment toward her and her partner, affecting not only their documentary but also the collaborative efforts of their entire team.
A Call for Reflection
In the concluding parts of the letter, Nayanthara urged Dhanush to let go of past grievances and embrace a more positive outlook. She spoke about the importance of spreading love and appreciating others' successes, adding: "The world is a big place, it's meant for everyone. It's okay for people you know to come up in life... I hope and pray that someday you are also fully capable of spreading love and not just saying it."

Dhanush, as of now, has not responded to Nayanthara's open letter.

Nayanthara Apologises to Dhanush in Resurfaced Old Video
Nayanthara took to her social media on Saturday to share a scathing open letter to Dhanush, calling out his personal vendetta by sending a lawsuit to her for using footage from his production house's film in her upcoming documentary, Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale. Hours after her rant, an old video resurfaced, in which Nayanthara is seen apologizing to Dhanush on stage for her performance in the same film.
Old video resurfaces
Several X users shared a clip from Filmfare Awards South in 2016 when Nayanthara won the Best Actress - Tamil award for her performance in her husband Vignesh Shivan's 2015 romantic action comedy Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. During her acceptance speech, Nayanthara made a surprising remark at Dhanush, which seemed to have been said and received in jest but, in retrospect, hints at the tension between the two stars, which may have snowballed into their feud this week.
"Thank you Dhanush for initiating NRD (Naanum Rowdy Dhaan), and I have to say I am sorry also. Dhanush absolutely hated my performance in Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. Sorry Dhanush for disappointing you with my performance. I'll probably make it better next time," Nayanthara said on stage. Dhanush, seated in the audience, grinned and seemingly dismissed Nayanthara's remark. He produced Naanum Rowdy Dhaan under his banner Wunderbar Films. It also starred Vijay Sethupathi opposite Nayanthara.

Nayanthara's open letter to Dhanush
Nayanthara accused Dhanush of harboring “vengeance” against her, following his legal notice to her, objecting to the use of clips from a film he produced. In an open letter shared on social media on Saturday, Nayanthara took a dig at Dhanush for denying permission to use songs and visuals from Naanum Rowdy Dhaan.
She questioned whether Dhanush’s decision stemmed from a “personal grudge” rather than business concerns, alleging that he demanded ₹10 crore for three-second clips shot on personal devices during the making of the decade-old film. Nayanthara described the move as an “all-time low” for Dhanush, whom she referred to as a former friend.
“Does a producer become an emperor controlling the lives, freedom, and liberty of everyone on the set? Any deviation from the emperor’s dictum attracts legal ramifications?” she wrote in her three-page statement. While confirming she would respond legally, Nayanthara highlighted the “moral side” of the issue, which she said “must be defended in the court of God.” “It has been almost 10 years since the Naanum Rowdy Dhaan’s release, but the vile behavior persists behind a mask,” she alleged.
The Netflix India documentary Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale, scheduled to stream on November 18, offers an insight into Nayanthara’s professional and personal life, including her marriage to filmmaker Vignesh Shivan.
