Jana Nayagan
Thalapathy Vijay’s Jana Nayagan is unable to see the light of day due to the ongoing legal feud with the CBFC. While the makers have withdrawn the writ petition against the committee, the release continues to remain uncertain. Amid this, a Canadian distributor has shared an update and hinted at the film’s release on April 30.
The latest update came not from the makers, but from Canadian distributor York Cinemas. The statement was posted with the caption, “Important Announcement of Jananayagan. From York Cinemas Management.” It read, “Dear Patrons, please note that the movie Jana Nayagan will not be releasing before April 30. If you have any pending tickets and your refund has not yet been processed, kindly contact our theatres to have it arranged at the earliest.”
