Rumours Around Vijay’s ‘Jana Nayagan’ Release Finally Put to Rest

Directed by H. Vinoth and backed by KVN Productions, the film, a magnum opus, has triggered huge expectations as it’s the final act of one of Tamil cinema’s most bankable stars. In October this year, rumours began doing the rounds that the makers of the film had decided to pause the promotional activities of the film in the wake of the Karur tragedy. Soon, there were rumours that claimed that the film's release was likely to be postponed.
