JANA NAYAGAN OPENS BIG, BUT CONTROVERSY STEALS THE SPOTLIGHT

Chennai: Thalapathy Vijay’s much-awaited farewell film “Jana Nayagan” has made a powerful start at the box office, registering an impressive Day 1 opening and receiving strong audience support across Tamil Nadu and overseas markets. However, despite the solid collections, the film fell short of surpassing the worldwide opening records set by blockbusters like Leo, GOAT, and Jailer.

Adding to the buzz, the film has sparked controversy after a Tamil Nadu minister was seen attending a screening with children despite the movie carrying an ‘A’ (Adults Only) certification. The incident has triggered widespread debate on social media regarding adherence to CBFC rules, with many questioning whether public officials should set a better example.

Meanwhile, another viral claim suggesting that Vijay’s estranged wife Sangeetha attended the film’s screening has been officially debunked. Fact-checks confirmed that the circulating video was an old clip and had no connection with the film’s release.
