‘Jana Nayakan’ was to be released earlier this year in the month of January on the big occasion of Pongal, but at the last moment the Censor Board (CBFC) had decided to withhold the certificate, expressing deep objection to the strong political dialogues and social issues of the film. The matter became so complicated that the makers had to approach the Honorable Court for relief, where after a long legal battle, the film was given final approval to release with an ‘A’ (Adults Only) certificate after modifying important cuts suggested by the Censor Board, especially references to political and social symbols. After all these challenges and the arrests of criminals involved in piracy, now the new form of the film is ready to hit the theatres.
