Vijay's 'Jana Nayagan' Release Hangs in Balance
20 Jan
Summary
- Madras High Court to hear 'Jana Nayagan' case on January 20.
- Supreme Court refused to intervene, directing the High Court.
- Film's censor certificate withheld due to an internal complaint.
The Madras High Court is scheduled to resume its hearing on the 'Jana Nayagan' vs. Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) case today, January 20, at 11:30 am. This follows the Supreme Court's decision to refuse intervention, instead directing the High Court to adjudicate the matter on this specific date. The outcome is eagerly awaited by fans and the makers of the film, particularly Thalapathy Vijay.
'Jana Nayagan,' widely considered Vijay's final film before a full-time political career, encountered significant hurdles when its censor certificate was withheld. An internal complaint prompted the CBFC to refer the film to a revising committee for further review. The film's producers then approached the Madras High Court, where the Censor Board announced the appointment of a new committee for a re-evaluation.
Directed by H Vinoth, the political action drama features a prominent cast including Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol, and Mamitha Baiju, with music composed by Anirudh Ravichander. The film's production is managed by KVN Productions. The current legal proceedings are critical for determining its imminent release.
