Vijay’s Jana Nayagan Faces Fresh Delay Amid Ongoing Tussle with CBFC, Won’t Release Before TN Assembly Elections
York Cinemas confirmed Jana Nayagan’s release delay past April 30 due to certification issues and election timing; losses to stakeholders may exceed Rs 100 crore, trade analyst said.
- On Saturday, February 14, York Cinemas announced Jana Nayagan will not be released before April 30 and asked ticket holders about refunds and ticketing.
- With the court permitting withdrawal, the next step rests with the CBFC revising committee after the Madras High Court allowed KVN Productions to withdraw their writ petition on Thursday, February 12.
- Vijay's Jana Nayagan, billed as his final film, missed its planned January 9 release, with trade analysts estimating Tamil Nadu box-office losses around Rs 150 crore.
- KVN Productions had counted on two big releases in early 2026, but with the censor certificate pending, Jana Nayagan's release date remains uncertain, risking recovery before Toxic's March 19 release.
- Certification delays continue to determine the release horizon, with Tamil Nadu Assembly elections likely in March-end or April and the CBFC revising committee still deciding Jana Nayagan's fate.
