Jana Nayagan Case

On Tuesday, the Madras HC court set aside the single judge's earlier judgment that had ordered the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to give Jana Nayagan a UA 16+ certificate. The court remanded the matter to the single judge and directed the single judge to decide on it 'expeditiously'.

Jana Nayagan Release Date

Jana Nayagan was slated to release on January 9, 2026. But, as it didn't receive a certificate from CBFC, it was postponed. For now, it is not yet confirmed when the film will be released, as the legal proceedings will continue.
