Once an actress said “Only after becoming an actress I realized the glory and pain of being an actress”.

This statement not apt for anyone, but Nayanthara. At present, Nayanthara is getting a salary of Rs.3 Cr. This is the maximum amount one can get as a heroine in Tamil cinema. She is the first ever actress to fix such pay scale. But, it took a lot of hard work and sacrifices to reach to the top.

She made her acting debut in the film ‘Ayya’. Before which she was rejected by directors such as Parthiban for having squint eye.

In Ayya, she stubbornly refused to wear a glamorous dress for a song, even after the director’s insistence. But for the film Ghajini, she did not refuse to go glamour because she knew that Asin was the number 1 heroine during that time. Having enquired about Asin’s role in the movie, she agreed to compete with her style. That is when her career graph took off.

A hot kissing scene in the film ‘Vallavan’ with Simbu sparked controversy for a long time. It was then that she fell in love with Simbu. It was said that the break-up controversies and her struggles to overcome the separation, were the reasons for her initial fame. 

As she was proving her talent in the movies Villu, Aadhavan and Boss engira baskaran, she fell in love with Prabhu Deva. One of her directors said “Nayanthara has never let her personal life influence the shooting. She has never mixed her personal and professional life. She is one among few actresses who respect their career and she stands first in that list. If the shooting was announced to begin at 7 AM she would be there at the exact time. She is not like the actress who would immediately go inside the caravan right after a shot. After her shot gets over, she would eagerly watch her co-stars’ acting. This dedication is the reason for her success”.

She concentrates more on her physical fitness and the story selection. Usually in Tamil cinema, the hero gets grand opening scenes. It was this lady super star who received such grand introductions later in all of her films.  The distributors are confident of the success of the upcoming movies Aramm, Kolaiyuthir Kaalam, Imaikka Nodigal and Velaikaran, which are starring the lady super star.
