Nayanthara Reveals Why She Quit Cinema
In her newly-released docu-film ‘Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale’, which premiered on the streaming giant Netflix on Monday, the ‘Jawan’ actor disclosed that she quit cinema at the peak of her career in 2011, because she was told by her partner in that time.
Nayanthara, who stayed away from films from 2011 to 2013, opened up on her second relationship in the documentary when she divulged, “It was the man who told me to quit cinema.”
“It wasn’t like I had an option. I was told to leave the cinema and I agreed,” she added, without naming the ex-partner.
It is pertinent to note here that Nayanthara was rumored to be in a live-in relationship with veteran dancer-choreographer Prabhu Deva at that time, despite the latter being married to his first wife Latha. Deva even expressed his desire to end his first marriage and get married to Nayanthara but was threatened by his wife with a hunger strike if he did so.

Deva’s first marriage eventually ended in 2011 but Nayanthara confirmed the following year that she has ended the relationship with him.
She returned to films in 2013.
Nayanthara started dating ‘Naanum Rowdy Dhaan’ director Vignesh Shivan, after meeting him on the film’s set in 2015. The couple tied the knot in 2022 and share twin sons Uyir and Ulag.
Meanwhile, ‘Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale’ is now streaming on Netflix.
