Deepika Padukone had an extended cameo in the film, Jawan, for which she did not charge even a penny. As per the source, the film looked like an SRK-Deepika film. Revealing how Nayanthara is no longer interested in signing Bollywood projects anytime soon, the source added:
“It was not a cameo at all. Jawan was almost made to look like an SRK-Deepika film. Nayanthara is the leading actor down south, and hence, she was not happy with the treatment of Jawan. And that can never well be the reason why we might not see her in a Bollywood project, at least not anytime soon.”
Nayanthara was not seen in any promotional events of Jawan and the actress also skipped the recently held success meet. However, as per the source, Nayanthara does not involve herself in promotions, as the actress follows a no-promotion policy for her films. Because of some bad experiences in the past when she was misquoted, the actress has refrained herself from any promotional activity.
