Nayanthara’s journey from a local TV host in Kerala to one of the highest-paid actresses in Indian cinema has been nothing short of remarkable. As the “Lady Superstar” of South Indian cinema, she has proven that superstardom is not reserved for men alone. With her movies consistently hitting the box office, Nayanthara’s star value has skyrocketed. Today, her net worth as one of the highest-paid actresses in Indian cinema is enough to astonish anyone.
There is a significant difference between the Nayanthara seen in her debut film Manassinakkare in 2003 and the Nayanthara of today. A question she often faces is whether she has undergone plastic surgery. Recently, Nayanthara clarified that she hasn’t had any plastic surgery. She explained why her face might look different year after year. Nayanthara stated that she hasn’t had any cosmetic surgeries, attributing her changing facial features to natural factors. She explained that she loves eyebrow makeup and takes time to perfect it, as she considers it a real “game-changer.” Over the years, she has experimented with different eyebrow looks.
“Perhaps that’s why people think my face is changing, or that I look different,” she said. “A lot of people think I’ve done something to my face, but I assure you, it’s not true.” She emphasized that she doesn’t think cosmetic surgery is wrong but credits her look to dieting. With her weight fluctuating over time, her cheeks have gained and lost volume. “You can pinch my face and see—there’s no plastic!” she laughed. She made these comments while discussing her skincare brand, 9 Skin, where she addressed the rumors.
Nayanthara’s candid comments have already captured fans’ attention. Her facial changes have been quite noticeable, and cosmetologists have pointed out differences in her lips and cheeks in previous videos. Social media users continue to ask if such transformations are possible through dieting alone. Nayanthara, who is 39, was last seen in the film Annapoorni. Upcoming projects include Mookuthi Amman 2 and Dear Students, where she will star opposite Nivin Pauly. Fans are eagerly awaiting her new films.
