Film faces delays and legal trouble
Jana Nayagan has already faced a challenging journey to release. Initially scheduled for January, the film hit a roadblock when the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) did not issue a censor certificate.
This led to a prolonged legal battle between the filmmakers and the board, eventually taking the matter to the Madras High Court. After nearly a month of back-and-forth, the makers decided to withdraw their case and submit the film to a revising committee for approval.
The delay was reportedly due to concerns over certain scenes that could potentially hurt public sentiments.

While the leaked footage has only increased curiosity around the film, it has also sparked conversations about respecting the hard work behind it.
