Controversies
Nayantara easily created headlines when her scandalous poster with co-star (then boyfriend) Simbu (Silambarasan) was splashed across South India. It showed them in a supposedly vulgar lip-lock,the couple were open to media about their relationship, after a brief relationship period of one year the couple spilt up with a huge media hype. Nayanthara made friends with co-star Trisha Krishnan and now those two are helpful for each other.
