Nayanthara completes 22 years


Taking to her Instagram stories section, Nayanthara posted a handwritten note which read, "Twenty-two years since I first stood in front of the camera, not knowing movies would become the love of my life. Every frame, every shot, every silence... shaped me, healed me and made me who I am. Forever grateful."

On the day she completed 22 years in the industry, she shared the first look posters of Hi, her upcoming film with actor Kavin. The romantic entertainer, which is being jointly produced by Zee Studios South, The Rowdy Pictures and Seven Screen Studios, will also feature a host of actors, including K Bhagyaraj, Prabhu, Radhika, Sathyan, Adithya Kathir, and Kureishi, among others.
