Lady Superstar Nayanthara is currently ruling Tamil cinema with a massive fan following and several hit films. She's probably one of the highest-paid actresses in K-town at the moment.
Over the past few years, Nayanthara has been careful in selecting her roles as she's leaning onto more female-centric subjects.

However, it came as a surprise when Nayanthara allegedly refused to act in Bollywood's commercially-successful and critically-acclaimed 'Queen'.

Actress Kangana Ranaut did a remarkable job in the film as a damsel-in-distress whose fiancee gets cold feet just before their marriage. The shy, conservative Punjabi girl from New Delhi embarks on their honeymoon trip to Paris and Amsterdam all by herself. The adventure turns out to be a self-discovery journey for Kangana in the film.

It was reported that Nayanthara was first approached to play Kangana's role in Tamil and Telugu, to which she said 'NO'. Later, actress Trisha was asked for the part and she denied it as well. Finally, Tamannaah and Kajal Aggarwal were roped in the Telugu and Tamil versions respectively. Take a look at the teasers:

It's not official why Nayanthara refused to act in the film, but wouldn't it be interesting how the actress fills in Kangana's shoes?
