In addition, the footage shows a prison sequence, including a moment where Vijay appears as an inmate holding a shovel, followed by a fight scene.
Political blame game
The controversy escalated further when TVK General Secretary (Elections) Aadhav Arjuna alleged that rival parties were behind the leak, directly naming both the BJP and the DMK.
The BJP quickly dismissed the claims.
“This is silly. How can he say this? The movie is theirs and without their knowledge there are no chances of the release of clips. Intentionally they have released the clips to gain political mileage,” party spokesperson Narayanan Thirupathy was quoted as saying by NDTV.
Jana Nayagan delays
Jana Nayagan, directed by H. Vinoth, has already been facing delays due to certification issues with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The film was originally slated for a January 9 release but remains stuck in limbo.

According to reports, concerns were raised over scenes involving extreme violence and certain army-related elements, prompting further review. The makers had even taken the matter to court before withdrawing the case and resubmitting the film with cuts.
Now, with the movie still under re-examination and unlikely to release before the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections, the situation has taken a political turn.
Vijay, who is set to make a full-fledged political entry with his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, recently alleged that hurdles in the film’s release were politically motivated.
The film also stars Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol, Mamitha Baiju, Prakash Raj and Priyamani.
