Why Is Film Jana Nayagan Facing Delay?

Jana Nayagan was originally planned for release in January 2026. However, the film has remained unreleased for more than four months because of certification-related issues.

According to reports, the movie was first screened for the CBFC examining committee in December 2025. The panel reportedly suggested multiple cuts and revisions before granting a U/A certificate. After making the required changes, the producers submitted the film again.

However, complaints regarding certain scenes reportedly pushed the film to a revision committee, causing further delay in the process.

Earlier, Vijay had also alleged that political reasons might be connected to the delay in certification.
