Jana Nayagan to release uncut in the UK
Ahimsa Entertainment, the distributor of Jana Nayagan in the UK, revealed on Sunday that the Vijay-starrer has been rated 15+ with no modifications or cuts. “THE HONOURABLE CHIEF MINISTER OF TAMIL NADU. C JOSEPH VIJAY,” the distributor wrote while making the announcement on X (formerly Twitter), adding, “#JanaNayagan in UK cinemas July 24 – uncut, 15-rated. All the action, all the mass, all the Thalapathy craze, exactly as it was meant to be seen. One last time.”
A few days earlier, the distribution company claimed that thousands of tickets were sold within an hour after advance bookings opened. Sharing the update on X, the distributor wrote, “Thousands of UK tickets sold in 60 mins. The craze for this one name is just unbelievable. #JanaNayagan.”
Calling the film Vijay’s grand farewell to cinema, the distributor added, “Years from now, people will ask if you were there. Make sure your answer is YES. This isn’t just a film. It’s a goodbye to the man who gave us everything. UK – we need you in those seats. We need you going MAD. We need you NOW. Share it far and wide, and let’s make this the biggest send-off Tamil cinema has ever seen!”
CBFC clears Vijay’s Jana Nayagan
The booking frenzy comes after Jana Nayagan finally received clearance from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), ending months of uncertainty. Originally scheduled for release in January, the film reportedly faced delays after objections raised during the certification process led to multiple rounds of revisions and cuts. Apart from this, the film was also in limbo after it was leaked online, sparking outrage over piracy
The film has now received an A certification. The board cleared it after directing 12 cuts, including edits to political references and other sensitive scenes
Directed by H. Vinoth and produced by KVN Productions, Jana Nayagan stars Vijay alongside Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol, and Mamitha Baiju. Gautham Vasudev Menon, Prakash Raj, Narain, and Priyamani also play pivotal roles
