Jana Nayagan Eyes Republic Day Release: Thalapathy Vijay is Poised to Rewrite Box Office History

The anticipation for JanaNayagan, widely celebrated as Thalapathy Vijay's 69th and final cinematic outing, has reached a fever pitch. Originally slated for a massive global release on January 9, 2026, the film faced an eleventh-hour postponement due to a legal deadlock regarding its censorship certification. With a crucial hearing now set for January 19 in the Supreme Court, fans and trade analysts are pinning their hopes on a Republic Day (January 26) release—a move that could turn this delay into a historic box office explosion. The financial data preceding the delay reveals the sheer scale of the Vijay storm. According to trade reports, the film had already secured nearly ₹40 crore in overseas opening day advance bookings and close to ₹60 crore for the opening weekend. This combined ₹100 crore in global pre-sales was wiped out instantly following the postponement, representing an unprecedented challenge for overseas exhibitors who had locked in a record-breaking rollout across 25 countries. Domestically, the impact was equally staggering. Karnataka Talkies reported that theaters were forced to refund tickets worth nearly ₹6 crore in Karnataka alone. While these figures highlight the temporary loss, they also serve as a powerful indicator of the film's potential; this level of hard-earned demand is almost unheard of in Indian cinema, suggesting that once a new date is locked, the comeback will be legendary. Directed by H. Vinoth and produced by KVN Productions, Jana Nayagan (titled Jan Neta in Hindi) is a high-octane political thriller. The film marks Vijay's swan song before his full-time entry into politics, adding an immense emotional weight to its release. The project features a stellar ensemble cast, including Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol, Mamitha Baiju, Gautham Vasudev Menon, and Prakash Raj, with a high-energy soundtrack composed by Anirudh Ravichander. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The buzz surrounding the film is rooted in its record-breaking pre-release business. Even before the first show, the film reportedly fetched over ₹325 crore through satellite, digital, and music rights. In international markets like Malaysia, the film eclipsed the booking pace of previous blockbusters within hours, selling over 90,000 tickets in a single day. As the legal issue nears its resolution on January 19, the industry is preparing for what many believe will be the biggest opening in the history of Tamil cinema. A Republic Day release offers a four-day holiday weekend, providing the perfect platform for Jana Nayagan to reclaim its ₹100 crore momentum and surpass it. The delay has only served to increase the craze among the audience. If the Supreme Court clears the film, Jana Nayagan is not just expected to be a hit—it is poised to rewrite the history of the Indian box office, ensuring Thalapathy Vijay exits the silver screen at the absolute pinnacle of his career.

Jana Nayagan Release: No Relief For Vijay-Starrer As Release Delayed Indefinitely

Chennai, January 9 - The release of Thalapathy Vijay's much-awaited film Jana Nayagan continues to remain uncertain, with no immediate relief in sight for the makers. Just when it appeared that the film had crossed its biggest hurdle, the situation took another dramatic turn. The Madras High Court Chief Justice bench stayed the earlier directive that had cleared the way for the film's release. As a result, the certification granted to Jana Nayagan has effectively been put on hold, once again stalling its theatrical rollout. Earlier in the day, a single judge of the Madras High Court, Justice PT Asha, allowed the writ petition filed by the production house KVN Productions LLP and directed the CBFC to immediately issue a U/A (16+) certificate to the film. It looked like a major relief for the makers who have been looking to release the movie soon, but not to be. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The CBFC swiftly filed an appeal before the division bench led by the Chief Justice. The court urgently heard the case in the afternoon and stayed the single judge's order. As a result, the certification granted to Jana Nayagan has effectively been put on hold, once again stalling its theatrical rollout. The next hearing is on January 21, after Pongal holidays, which means no immediate release in sight for Jana Nayagan. With distributors, exhibitors, and fans left waiting, the film's future now hinges entirely on the court's verdict. For now, Jana Nayagan stands as one of the most high-profile releases to be indefinitely delayed due to prolonged censorship and legal disputes. Stay tuned...

Vijay's Jana Nayagan Makers Approach Madras High Court Over Censor Certificate Delay

Chennai, January 6 - The makers of Thalapathy Vijay's Jana Nayagan have moved the Madras High Court after the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) failed to issue the film's censor certificate, just days ahead of its scheduled January 9, 2026, release.

Thalapathy Vijay's Theri Re-Release Postponed; Reason Revealed

Chennai, January 19 - It has been quite an eventful first month of the new year for Thalapathy Vijay on the professional front before he steps into full-time politics. Earlier in the month, the actor's swan song, Jana Nayagan, was forced to postpone due to censor issues with no immediate release in sight. With fans feeling disappointed with the postponement of Jana Nayagan, makers planned the re-release of Vijay's blockbuster film Theri for Republic Day weekend. But the plans seem to have taken a back seat for now, as reports say that the theatrical re-release of 2016's action thriller has been pushed back, this time, for a noble cause. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The decision to postpone Theri's re-release comes just days after the re-release had already been pushed from its initially planned January 15 date. According to the report, producer Kalaipuli S. Thanu of V Creations took the call to defer Theri's return to cinemas to accommodate several new Tamil releases slated for the same period. With multiple smaller and mid-budget films eyeing a January 23 release, the producer opted to step aside so that these films could get adequate screen space and a fair run at the box office. The move has been widely appreciated within the Tamil film industry, with people praising Thanu for prioritising industry harmony over the commercial advantage of a star-driven re-release. Given Thalapathy Vijay's massive fan base, Theri was expected to dominate screens and footfalls, potentially impacting the prospects of new releases. With this postponement, the much-talked-about re-release box office clash between Theri and Ajith Kumar's Mankatha has also been avoided. Makatha is scheduled for a January 23 re-release, and the pre-sales for the same are going strong. Stay tuned...

In what has become an exciting Pongal tradition, the streaming giant has revealed a lineup brimming with the industry's biggest names, visionary directors, and stories that promise to captivate audiences both locally and globally. Featuring multiple projects from superstars Suriya and Dhanush, and eagerly awaited films from Karthi and Jayam Ravi, this announcement signals a massive year for Tamil cinema on the global stage. Following their theatrical runs, these films will be available exclusively on Netflix. 1.S 46 - Suriya The buzz around this film is palpable, as it pairs the formidable Suriya with Telugu director Venky Atluri.

This film sees Dhanush joining forces with Vignesh Raja, the director of the acclaimed thriller Por Thozhil, for what is being described as a high-octane action entertainer and a raw and gritty suspense thriller. The story, described as a violent survival drama, focuses on Dhanush's character, Karasaami, who is pushed to the edge and must navigate a dangerous path to protect his loved ones, seemingly paying the price for his past actions.

Marking his debut as a producer under his new banner, Ravi Mohan Studios, Jayam Ravi has assembled a powerhouse cast, starring alongside the versatile S.J. Suryah and acclaimed Malayalam actor Arjun Ashokan.

The impressive ensemble also includes Shraddha Srinath, Gouri Priya, and noted Marathi actor Upendra Limaye, with music composed by Harshavardhan Rameshwar. 7.Idhayam Murali - Atharva Atharva takes the lead in Idhayam Murali, a film that beautifully borrows its title from his father, the beloved actor Murali, promising a heartfelt love story with a nostalgic feel.

The project is highly anticipated as it will showcase Yogi Babu's extensive acting range in a pivotal, character-driven role, promising a story that is both relatable and hilarious. 10.AGS 28 - Arjun Action King Arjun Sarja headlines this project from the renowned production house AGS Entertainment, tentatively titled AGS 28. The film is a family entertainer that skillfully blends action with drama, centering on a family trained to protect the vulnerable who become a dangerous force against their oppressors. The project marks the much-anticipated directorial debut of Subash K. Raj, a former assistant to Love Today director Pradeep Ranganathan. The film features a strong cast with Arjun Sarja alongside Abhirami and Preithy Mukundhan, supported by actors like Vivek Prasanna, John Kokken, and Dileepan.

Producer Archana Kalpathi's continued trust in Pradeep's directorial vision highlights the studio's confidence in his ability to deliver high-return content. By moving from mid-range budgets to this high-stakes sci-fi venture, the duo is clearly aiming to set a new benchmark for production values in South Indian cinema.
