Nayanthara is a powerhouse of incredible talent and is one of the most sought-after actresses. Known for some of her fearless statements and choices, the actress has risen up to pan-Indian fame over the years.
However, having spent so many years in the film industry, the diva has never made any personal connections or friends among people she has worked with. In one of her older revelations, the Jawan actress had spilled beans on the same.
Why does Nayanthara not have friends from the film industry?
Previously, in an old interview with Kairali TV, Nayanthara revealed the reason behind why she has never made any genuine friendships with people from the movie industry. The actress explained how she could never make any solid friendships because she does not work with the same people on every film.
In her words: 'It's hard to build and maintain close friendships in the industry, mainly because we don't work with the same people on every film. Once a shoot wraps and we say our goodbyes, we might only see each other occasionally at events or parties."

She added, 'In life, I may have only two or three people who know me very well and whom I can genuinely call friends. They know everything about me. They're the kind of people who would show up immediately if I ever needed anything.'
