However, it was during this very film that Dhanush played Cupid, bringing Nayanthara and her now-husband, Vignesh Shivan, together. Written and directed by Vignesh Shivan, the 2015 Tamil hit starred Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi, with Dhanush as the producer.
In an earlier interview with Hello Magazine, both Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan credited Dhanush for their love story. "Dhanush sir made me narrate the story to Nayan. She liked it.
Once she came on board, I was able to cast actor Vijay Sethupathi, who was initially not keen to do this film. He was not convinced about the script. But he agreed after Nayan said yes.
The movie paved the way for me to spend a lot of time around her. We got involved within a year," shared Vignesh Shivan. ALSO READ - Nayanthara VS Dhanush EXPLAINED: All You Need To Know About Naanum Rowdy Dhaan Controversy Nayanthara added, "It was very organic.
