Release put on hold amid certification uncertainty

Thalapathy Vijay’s much-anticipated film Jana Nayagan has been officially postponed, days before its scheduled theatrical release on 9 January. The decision comes amid continuing uncertainty over the film’s certification, with no revised release date announced so far.

The development surfaced on 7 January after distributors handling the film in Europe and Malaysia confirmed on X that the release had been cancelled. While the film was expected to open on a large scale, the lack of clearance has forced the makers to put plans on pause.
