Actress credits Nag Ashwin for her return to cinema

Nivetha Pethuraj expressed gratitude to producer Nag Ashwin for giving her another opportunity in films. “I am thankful to Nag Ashwin for believing in me,” she said.

Her heartfelt words have now gone viral on social media.

A new beginning awaits Nivetha Pethuraj
