Critics Reviews

Latha Srinivasan Hindustan Times Jan 29
The documentary – like Nayanthara’s image – has been carefully crafted to tell us only what the couple want us to know, and that’s a let-down. It barely scratches the surface and there’s an incomplete feeling to it. Go to Full Review
Troy Ribeiro Free Press Journal (India) 11/23/2024
In its earnestness to portray Nayanthara as a perfect amalgamation of warrior and princess, the documentary forgets that real-life fairytales are often messy, complicated, and rife with imperfections. Go to Full Review
Saibal Chatterjee NDTV 11/18/2024
3/5
Seeks to capture the rise and rise of Nayanthara in the face of several reverses. It isn't an objective account but, notwithstanding the limitations of its format, Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairy Tale is entertaining and insightful. Go to Full Review

Birithivy Y 11/22/2024 Nayanthara: Beyond The Fairytale - 6.5/10. To be honest, I kinda was wishing this was more of a look at Nayanthara’s career. It is, but it kinda isn’t too. She’s had an immense amount of success in her career, and it would’ve been cool if she went through her big roles a little more and gave insight as to how she approached the roles and her thought process of picking them. Overall though, this is more of a fan service documentary. And surprisingly, the wedding portion is only for the last 20/30 min or so. As a doc, this is serviceable but leaves room for more, and I guess that makes sense since Nayanthara is still continuing her run as a star. It would be interesting to see a followup to this in the future though! See more Shan k 11/19/2024 Not Worth, Self PR material, other than that nothing, She is not even a big star, last 8 years all her movies flop, how the producers are giving the movie chance and high salary, that's mystery in Indian Cinema, may be they fulfill their services. God know!, She will not promote her movies, if her own product, she will go any extend to promote her own production movies & products. Such a crap person in South Indian Cinema. See more David H 11/18/2024 Curated cringe fest! Suddenly some random actress thought her life is inspiring. A hollow vanity project, this documentary lacks depth and authenticity. Over-sanitized and self-indulgent, it fails to inspire or engage, reducing itself to a tedious PR exercise. A complete disappointment. See more kiran k 11/18/2024 The documentary doesn't live up to the hype. I wouldn't say I liked it because every individual has struggled in their respective fields to become someone or something. I think very few people have a real fairy tale of their life. So, as a documentary, I didn't find it either intriguing and compelling or inspiring. This is my personal view. See more Read all reviews
