Thalapathy Vijay's fans are eagerly awaiting the release of his final film, Jana Nayagan. Scheduled to release on Pongal, the movie has faced massive delays and is still awaiting release. Fans expected the release of the film would be expedited following the actor's swearing as the Chief Minister of the state. However, the release of the film still seems to be a distant prospect.
Producer shares the reason behind the Jana Nayagan 5-month delay
Jana Nayagan producer Venkat K Narayana was recently spotted by the members of the media during a temple visit. The filmmaker was mobbed on his visit about questions regarding the release date of Jana Nayagan. Narayana was expectedly hesitant to answer the questions on account of his being at the temple.
