Jana Nayagan, starring Vijay, has been leaked online ahead of its release. Several Tamil stars, including Rajinikanth, have condemned the leak and urged viewers to respect the hard work of those involved in the film's production.
Rajinikanth posted on his X account, 'The release of Jana Nayagan on the internet has caused shock and pain. Film associations must raise their voice against this, and the government must identify those responsible and impose severe punishment.'
The film's makers have initiated legal action against those responsible and issued a warning to audiences against downloading or sharing the film through unauthorized sources.
The film's release was postponed due to delays in certification by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). No release date has been set yet.
