Over the years, be it personal or professional, Nayanthara has made healdines for multiple reasons. From calling ‘Ghajini’ her biggest mistake in career to welcoming twin boys through surrogacy with husband Vignesh Shivan, here’s looking at the times she grabbed the attention.

On Nayanthara’s birthday, know all about the 5 times she made headlines.

Doing Ghajini is my biggest mistake: In an interview with a popular radio channel, Nayanthara revealed that she regrets doing Ghajini. The actress said, “I consider doing Ghajini the biggest mistake in my career. While signing the film, I got a narration for my role but it didn’t turn out the way as promised. I felt cheated. My character was quite different from how it was narrated. From then on, I made a conscious choice to listen to scripts properly.” She starred alongside Suriya in the film.

On not promoting her movies: The Lady Superstar once revealed the reason behind not attending promotional events. She told Vogue India, “I don’t want the world to know what I am thinking. I am a very private person. I’m not very good with crowds. I’ve been misquoted and misinterpreted a lot of times. It was too much for me to handle. My job is to act. The films should speak for themselves.”

On dealing with breakup: Nayanthara once dated Prabhudeva. In an interview with Times of India in 2017, Nayanthara opened up on dealing with breakup and said, “That’s too personal to get into a break-up for anyone is the most difficult phase in their life. When you have to go away from someone you love or vice-versa, whatever the reason, it really shatters your life. But how you deal with it is important. I can’t get into how I dealt with it but I have to if I want to move on and live my life.”

Vignesh is the only one who believed in me: When Nayanthara went on stage to receive Best Actor award for Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, she thanked him for believing in her. At the award show, Nayanthara said, “Vignesh is the only one who believed in me, and told me that this is the time I can try a lot of different roles. Thank you for believing in me and making me do such a wonderful role. I actually wanted him to give me the award.”

Dreamy wedding and twins: The couple tied the knot on June 7, this year. A few weeks ago, they announced the arrival of their twin baby boys. This sparked rumours about them welcoming their twins through surrogacy. The Tamil Nadu government conducted an inquiry to find out whether Nayanthara and Vignesh violated surrogacy laws. Vignesh and Nayanthara submitted an affidavit as well as a marriage certificate to the Tamil Nadu Health department. In the affidavit, the couple revealed that they registered their marriage six years ago. They also revealed that the surrogate is Nayanthara’s relative from the UAE. The couple also revealed that they registered surrogacy in December last year, weeks before commercial surrogacy was banned in India.
