‘Vijay Deserves the Farewell He Has Earned’: Jana Nayagan Producer

The Madras High Court halted Jana Nayagan's release after the censor board appealed against the mandated UA certificate, citing extensive action scenes requiring an A rating.

  • On January 9, the Madras High Court ordered the Censor Board of Film Certification to grant a 'UA' certificate to Jana Nayagan following a petition by KVN Productions.
  • The Censor Board of Film Certification argued Jana Nayagan warranted an 'A' certificate because of extensive action sequences, conflicting with makers' push for a 'UA' certificate.
  • Directed by H Vinoth and produced by KVN Productions, Jana Nayagan stars Thalapathy Vijay with Pooja Hegde and Bobby Deol, and will release in Hindi as 'Jana Neta' as Vijay enters politics.
  • The CBFC appealed the court's order by filing a writ appeal, while X users expressed heartbreak over the postponed release robbing them of a Pongal release.
  • After the afternoon hearing, the Madras High Court Chief Justice's bench issued a stay on the film's release and set January 21, 2026, for the next hearing.
