Fans took to comment section to share their opinion. One user wrote, “Nayanthara didn't take any payment for her dance in Dhanush's production 'Ethir Neechal'. She could easily demand 2-3 crores for that song!”. Another user wrote, “In 2012 film remuneration for Heroins are around 1 to 1.2 crores ! You need 3 crores for a song when the movie budget is under 5 CR ? What a joke”. “Fan bases gonna blindly follow behind dhanush because of patriarchy.
