Vijay's Jana Nayagan faces indefinite delay over CBFC
10 Jan
Summary
- Jana Nayagan's release is indefinitely postponed due to CBFC clearance issues.
- The film's next hearing is scheduled for January 21, with release possible in late January or February.
- Despite delays, the movie is still predicted to achieve a strong ₹100 crore opening day.
Thalapathy Vijay's highly anticipated swansong, Jana Nayagan, faces an indefinite delay as it awaits clearance from the Central Board of Film Certification. The film's release is currently caught in a legal tangle, with the next hearing scheduled for January 21. Should it receive clearance, a potential release in late January or February is being considered.
This ongoing censorship controversy has inadvertently amplified the film's visibility and garnered public sympathy for the actor. The political action thriller was already generating considerable buzz in key markets like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Kerala, as well as overseas, driven solely by Vijay's immense star power.
Despite the postponement, projections indicate that Jana Nayagan is likely to achieve a robust worldwide opening day collection, potentially reaching ₹100 crore. This strong performance is anticipated, provided the makers secure adequate screen space across all markets, aiming to be the first Indian film of 2026 to hit this box office milestone on its opening day.
