About Jana Nayagan delay
Jana Nayagan was scheduled for theatrical release on January 9 for Pongal, but the legal dispute over its censor rating delayed the film's release.
The makers claimed to have received a communication from the board on December 22 about the film being suitable for a U/A 16+ certificate after the cuts. But the board claimed that CBFC Chairman Prasoon Joshi decided to withhold the certificate due to an internal complaint.
The makers approached the Madras High Court over the delay in the certificate.
The Single Bench judge ordered the CBFC to issue a U/A certificate, following which the board challenged it, and there was a stay in the film's release. Makers approached the Supreme Court, which sent the case back to the Madras HC.
On January 27, the Division Bench set aside the single judge's order, stating that it didn't grant the CBFC an opportunity to file its counter affidavit and ordered a fresh hearing.
The film was finally certified A in July with several cuts and changes.
It also faced another setback when it was leaked online in HD print in April, and several arrests were made.
Jana Nayagan cast
Jana Nayagan also stars Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol and Mamitha Baiju, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Prakash Raj, Narain and Priyamani.
