Why tickets for Jana Nayagan aren’t live in TN yet

Bookings for Jana Nayagan have yet to be opened in Tamil Nadu, and trade websites like Sacnilk have reported that the makers are still awaiting a censor certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Theatres are reportedly in panic mode and holding off on releasing tickets to avoid last-minute issues. The CBFC has suggested a few modifications to the film, as per the report. Bookings have been opened in Karnataka, Kerala and the overseas market for now.

H Vinoth's Jana Nayagan, also starring Mamitha Baiju, Pooja Hegde and Bobby Deol, is Vijay’s last film before he enters politics with his Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) party. He plans to contest in the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections this year. The film is rumoured to be a remake of Anil Ravipudi's 2023 Balakrishna-starrer Bhagavanth Kesari.
