In a recent social media post, Silambarasan TR wrote, “Dear Vijay anna, Setbacks have never stopped you. You’ve crossed bigger storms than this. This too shall pass, real Thiruvizha (festival) begins on the day Jana Nayagan releases.”

Apart from STR, Ravi Mohan also came out in support of Thalapathy Vijay and underlined that “Pongal” will truly arrive only when the film is released.
For those unaware, Jana Nayagan is yet to receive certification from the CBFC. As the certification has not been granted, the makers have approached the judiciary in hopes of receiving a final verdict. Only after the verdict is delivered will the makers finalize a new release date.
The production house has officially issued a press note regarding the film’s delay. Moreover, reports suggest that both domestic and international bookings have been refunded to audiences.
More about Jana Nayagan
Jana Nayagan, featuring Thalapathy Vijay, is touted as the superstar’s final cinematic appearance. Directed by H. Vinoth, the film follows the story of Thalapathy Vetri Kondan, a former police officer and convict who adopts a young girl named Viji and is determined to raise her as a strong and independent woman.
