Thalapathy Vijay's Last Film Jana Nayagan
While Vijay has started concentrating on his political career, fans of the actor are still waiting for the release of his last film Jana Nayagan.
It was supposed to be released in January this year, but the movie didn't get a certificate from CBFC, and the makers got involved in a legal battle with the board. However, the film was later submitted to the revising committee and it is yet to get a certification.
Meanwhile, a couple of weeks ago, a few scenes of the movie were leaked online. Many celebrities had reacted to it, and urged fans not to watch the leaked content of Jana Nayagan.
Now, let's wait and watch when the movie will hit the big screens.
