But it’s rare to see a man stand for a successful and happy woman. I haven’t seen that a lot,” she smiled, adding, “I met my husband through a film. We fell in love and got married because since the day I met him, he has only taught me to aim for bigger things.” ADVERTISEMENT Further, Nayanthara shared that Vignesh is the kind of person who has always pushed her to do more than question her decisions.

He has never questioned my decisions. I always thought it’s a good thing if people don’t question us. But, we also need a person to say ‘why aren’t you doing more, why are you stopping with this?’ I found that person in Vignesh,” she said. Vignesh and Nayanthara met on the sets of the film 'Naanum Rowdy Dhaan' which was directed by the filmmaker.

But today, on this stage, I can talk about sanitary napkins in public without hesitation. We have come a long way as a society,” she said. “However, we have a long way to go because many women are yet to be aware of menstrual health. Our aim now is to ensure we spread awareness," she added.
