In a interesting turn of events, Tamil film producers council and Nadigar sangam has banned Nayantara from acting in any further Tamil movies unless further announcement is made from the council. The ban has been a result of the actress walking out of the movie Paiyya, and following this Nayanthara refused to return the advance of 25 lakhs paid by Subash Chandra Bose, the producer of Paiyya.

The TFPC and Nadigar Sangam have conveyed to their members, the producers not to sign her for any future films. They have also requested producers of south india film industry not to sign her in any of their further projects!!
