Nayanthara ‘Very Upset’ With Atlee : Report CineEye, September 21, 2023 Nayanthara, who was a leading lady in SRK starrer Jawan, reportedly felt that her role was ‘sidelined’ in the movie. The actress is apparently ‘upset’ with Atlee. Nayanthara, who played Shah Rukh Khan’s love interest in director Atlee’s Jawan, is reportedly upset with the “treatment” of her role in the movie. Jawan, featuring SRK in the dual role, has entered the Rs 900 crore club worldwide within 13 days of its release. However, it seems Nayanthara is not very happy with her Bollywood debut. According to a source, the actress-producer is in no mood to take up anymore Bollywood projects anytime soon. “She has been very upset with Atlee because her role was chopped in the film. Also, Deepika’s (Padukone) character was elevated and Nayantara’s part was significantly sidelined,” a source told HT. Deepika Padukone, who has previously worked with SRK in numerous movies, had an extended cameo in Jawan, but her role was much appreciated by the audience. “It was not a cameo at all. Jawan was almost made to look like an SRK-Deepika film. Nayanthara is the leading actor down south, and hence, she was not happy with the treatment of Jawan,” said the source, adding, “And that can never well be the reason why we might not see her in a Bollywood project, at least not anytime soon.” Notably, Nayanthara was absent from all promotional events of Jawan. She even skipped the recent success meet that took place in Mumbai last week. The event saw SRK, Deepika, Vijay Sethupathi, Anirudh Ravichander, Atlee, Sanya Malhotra and Ridhi Dogra in attendance. The source, however, clarified: “Nayanthara never goes to the films events. She follows a no promotion policy for her films because of her bad experiences in the past when she was misquoted and because she feels that her job is to act and not get involved in the promotional activities.” BREAKING News
