Jana
Nayagan
Censor
Row:
Makers
Of
Thalapathy
Vijay
Starrer
To
Withdraw
The
Case?
The
long-awaited
final
film
of
Tamil
cinema’s
biggest
crowd-puller
has
been
facing
hurdles
in
its
release.
Thalapathy
Vijay’s
Jana
Nayagan
was
originally
expected
to
be
released
on
January
9,
2026.
But
the
H
Vinoth
directorial
has
been
delayed
indefinitely
after
the
makers
filed
a
lawsuit
against
CBFC
for
delaying
the
censor
certificate.
Jana
Nayagan
Censor
Row:
Makers
Of
Thalapathy
Vijay
Starrer
To
Withdraw
The
Case?
If
the
recent
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
makers
of
Jana
Nayagan
are
now
actively
considering
the
possibility
of
withdrawing
the
legal
case
against
censor
board.
According
to
the
grapevine,
the
makers,
KVN
Productions
might
make
this
move,
because
proceeding
with
the
case
might
delay
the
release
of
the
Thalapathy
Vijay
starrer,
further.
As
reported
earlier,
if
the
Jana
Nayagan
team
proceeds
with
the
legal
case
against
CBFC,
the
arguments
will
have
to
start
from
the
scratch.
The
Madras
High
Court
recently
ordered
that
the
case
should
be
handled
by
a
single
judge
bench,
which
suggests
that
the
legal
battle
will
not
end
anytime
soon.
The
court
made
this
decision
to
provide
the
censor
board
an
option
to
submit
their
arguments.
In
that
case,
the
Jana
Nayagan
release
will
not
happen
in
February
2026.
It
is
also
confirmed
that
film
releases
will
not
be
allowed
in
Tamil
Nadu
once
the
Assembly
election
dates
are
announced.
So,
the
next
option
for
the
Thalapathy
Vijay
starrer’s
team
is
to
wait
till
the
elections
get
over.
In
that
case,
the
release
of
H
Vinoth’s
film
will
be
pushed
to
May
2026.
However,
if
the
Jana
Nayagan
team
withdraws
the
case
against
the
censor
board
now,
they
will
receive
another
opportunity
to
resubmit
it
for
censor
process.
In
that
case,
the
Thalapathy
Vijay
starrer
might
get
submitted
to
a
new
revising
committee,
and
a
certificate
will
be
issued
in
a
lesser
time.
If
things
proceed
smoothly,
the
film
might
get
a
February
2026
release.
