In a recent interview for the film Connect, Nayanthara discussed how she deals with criticism. Admitting that despite not using social media, she still sees all of the positive and negative comments made about her. Nayanthara responded to Malavika Mohanan’s criticism of her appearance in a hospital scene from a movie when discussing the subject.
While Nayanthara didn’t take Malavika’s name, she responded to her comments, “There’s this interview I saw of another heroine. She didn’t take my name but hinted at me. She said that she saw a hospital scene where I was prim and proper with even my hairdo intact. She questioned how can someone be like that in a hospital scene. I am not saying one should be prim and proper in a hospital scene, but that doesn’t mean one should be with tousled and unkempt hair. There will be people to take care of you and they obviously tie up your hair.”
She added, “Also, there’s a huge difference when you are doing a realistic film and when you are doing a commercial film. When you are doing a realistic film, you have to go all the way to look at the part. But this example was from a commercial film… I went in with a look but my director told me not to look so sad. It is how they wanted to do the scene. So, when there’s a commercial aspect to it, you get as realistic as required.”
