Nayanthara calls 'Test', a story of love, resilience, and hope
South cinema's cherished star Nayanthara

South cinema's cherished star, Nayanthara, is set to enchant audiences with her upcoming film Test, which will be available for streaming on Netflix starting April 4, reports the statesman.

Renowned for her captivating performances and elegant presence on screen, Nayanthara portrays Kumudha, a woman with humble dreams — a warm home, a loving husband, and the happiness of being called 'Mom'.

However, as life tends to do, it challenges her with unexpected obstacles, pushing her patience, resilience, and inner strength.

Opening up about her role in ‘Test’, Nayanthara shared, “Kumudha’s strength lies in her simplicity. She dreams of love and family, but life doesn’t always play fair. Portraying her journey was incredibly emotional, and I hope the audience feels every moment of her struggle and triumph.”

The film, presented by Netflix and YNOT Studios, is a heart-wrenching yet inspiring tale of love, endurance, and unwavering hope.

While Nayanthara is basking in the anticipation of ‘Test’, she hasn’t forgotten to express her gratitude to those who’ve supported her along the way. Recently, she penned a heartfelt note thanking Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and his wife Gauri Khan for allowing her to use footage from their production ‘Jawan’ for her documentary, ‘Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale’.

In her note, she wrote, “Every film I’ve worked on holds a special place in my heart. When I requested footage for my documentary, these producers granted permission without hesitation. I am forever grateful.”

She also extended her thanks to Telugu megastar Chiranjeevi and other producers from across Indian cinema. With that, she acknowledged the love and respect she’s earned over her two-decade-long career.
