Jana Nayagan Release Blocked Amidst Legal Battles
28 Jan
Summary
- Film Jana Nayagan's release is currently postponed due to censorship issues.
- KVN Productions may decide today whether to continue legal fights.
- The Madras High Court previously ordered the film's immediate certification.
The film 'Jana Nayagan,' reportedly the final feature film of actor and politician Vijay, is currently barred from its intended Pongal release on January 9, 2026. The delay stems from ongoing censorship issues, leading to filmgoers' and the industry's frustration.
KVN Productions is reportedly contemplating its next steps today, January 28, 2026. Options include continuing the legal battle, approaching the Revising Committee, or escalating to the Supreme Court. The Revising Committee route could take at least ten days.
Previously, the Central Board of Film Certification declined an immediate U/A certificate, recommending the film for the Revising Committee. KVN Productions then filed a writ petition with the Madras High Court. Justice PT Asha initially set aside the Censor Board's recommendation and ordered immediate certification.
