Multiple reports say Thalapathy Vijay’s upcoming Tamil film “Jana Nayagan” may hit theatres on July 24, based on an overseas distributor’s update. The Canadian distributor York Cinemas has posted that the film will have a Canada release starting July 24, though the production house has not issued an official global or theatrical release date. Both sources note that the film has faced months of uncertainty after being originally scheduled for a Pongal release on January 9. The delay is linked to reported issues around receiving its censor certification in time. Reports add that the makers have since incorporated changes suggested by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), and that the certification process is believed to be nearing completion. An earlier viral claim about the film receiving an “A” certificate was later described as fake. The prolonged postponement has also reportedly affected business arrangements, including adjustments to distributor deals and minimum guarantees, with discussions described as shifting toward a distribution-based model. Directed by H. Vinoth, “Jana Nayagan” remains pending an official announcement from the production team.
