A major setback has hit Thalapathy Vijay’s Jana Nayagan, leaving fans deeply disappointed
The film continues to run into censorship issues, with the matter currently under judicial consideration. Earlier today, Justice P. T. Asha instructed the Censor Board to issue the certificate without delay. However, the CBFC challenged this order by filing a writ appeal before the first Division Bench, headed by Chief Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava along with Justice G. Arul Murugan.
According to the latest developments, the Chief Justice of the Madras High Court has put a temporary stay on the single judge’s directive that asked the CBFC to grant a U/A certificate to Vijay’s film. The case is now slated for its next hearing on January 21, following the Pongal holidays.
With this turn of events, it is evident that Jana Nayagan will not be releasing in theatres anytime soon. Fans are devastated as the actor’s much-anticipated farewell film continues to face obstacles. The film features Bobby Deol, Pooja Hegde, and Mamitha Baiju in prominent roles.
