Vijay’s ‘Jana Nayagan’ Faces Last-Minute Delay Amid CBFC Controversy
Actor-politician Vijay’s highly anticipated final film, Jana Nayagan, has hit an unexpected roadblock. Despite the filmmakers agreeing to make 27 cuts, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has refused to issue a censor certificate, postponing the film’s release. The film has not been referred to a larger review committee due to objections from a member of the initial examining committee.
For Jana Nayagan, Vijay’s political message is clear: “I am coming.” However, fans will now have to wait longer for his on-screen return—and this delay could be the final one for the actor’s cinematic journey.

Supporters of Vijay are alleging political interference, pointing to the actor’s outspoken criticism of both the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) at the national level and the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) in Tamil Nadu. Some have drawn parallels to the struggles faced by former Chief Minister M.G. Ramachandran (MGR), whose film Ulagam Sutrum Valiban faced censorship hurdles in 1973 after he was expelled from the DMK by Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi. Interestingly, when MGR traveled to Japan for the shoot, Karunanidhi personally went to the airport to see him off and even boarded the plane to wish him well—a reminder of the complicated intersection of politics and cinema in Tamil Nadu.

Fans now wait anxiously, hoping that Jana Nayagan will finally make its way to the big screen without further setbacks.
