Thalapathy Vijay's film 'Jana Nayagan' faces an indefinite delay in its release due to ongoing Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) issues and subsequent legal battles. The Madras High Court initially ordered the CBFC to grant a UA certificate but later stayed its own order, with the next hearing set for January 21. Prominent figures like Kamal Haasan have called for a more transparent and time-bound certification process, emphasizing freedom of expression and the impact on the film industry's ecosystem. Filmmakers like Ram Gopal Varma and Mari Selvaraj have criticized the CBFC's relevance and actions, while the film's producer has apologized to fans for the unforeseen delays.
