Vijay Eyes Box Office History Amid Political Debut
23 Apr
Summary
- Actor Vijay is contesting the Tamil Nadu elections for his political party.
- His final film, Jana Nayagan, faced release delays due to censorship.
- Jana Nayagan could be Vijay's second film to open with over 50 crore.

Kollywood star Thalapathy Vijay has reportedly left films to pursue a full-time political career, contesting the 2026 Tamil Nadu assembly elections with his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam. Voting is currently underway, marking a significant political debut for the actor.
Amidst this electoral focus, anticipation is high for Vijay's supposed final film, Jana Nayagan. The movie's release, originally scheduled for January 9, has been indefinitely postponed due to censorship challenges and ongoing court proceedings.
Fans are now hoping for an update on Jana Nayagan's release following the conclusion of voting. The film is widely expected to perform exceptionally well at the Indian box office, irrespective of its content, due to Vijay's massive fan following across Southern India.
Jana Nayagan has the potential to achieve a Day 1 net collection of 50 crore, a milestone that would place Vijay alongside Rajinikanth as one of the few Kollywood superstars with multiple such openings. Vijay already has one film, Leo, that achieved over 50 crore net on its opening day.
