Fans of Nayanthara, fondly called the “Lady Superstar”, have been buzzing with excitement following the release of a clip from the Netflix documentary Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairytale. The documentary shows her personal life and love story with her husband, Vignesh Shivan.

The Netflix video has been viewed nearly 4 million times.

The couple, who tied the knot on June 9, 2022, in Mahabalipuram, celebrated their wedding in a grand ceremony attended by film icons such as Shah Rukh Khan, Rajinikanth and AR Rahman.

In the clip, Nayanthara shared a heartfelt memory of how she first saw Vignesh in a different light.
