Vijay’s Jana Nayagan is releasing on July 23 after months of delays.
Jana Nayagan is all set to release on July 23. The film is the much-awaited swansong of Tamil superstar Vijay, releasing just months after the actor took oath as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu following the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam’s victory in the state Assembly elections.
Directed by H. Vinoth, the action thriller arrives after a prolonged certification battle with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), making its release one of the most anticipated cinematic events of the year. With massive advance bookings and sky-high expectations, the film is expected to open to record-breaking numbers at the box office.

Despite facing multiple delays and even being leaked online earlier this year, reportedly garnering over 1.20 crore views according to industry trackers, the excitement surrounding Jana Nayagan remains undiminished. The Vijay-starrer is set for a massive release across 2,500 screens in India, with early morning shows beginning at 6 am in several regions, while Tamil Nadu will follow its standard practice of commencing screenings at 9 am.
The film has already amassed around Rs 15.09 crore in India and Rs 30 crore worldwide through advance bookings, including block bookings.
Vijay’s Jana Nayagan is expected to make a thunderous start at the global box office, with early trade estimates pegging its opening-day worldwide gross at around Rs 100 crore. If the projections hold, the H. Vinoth directorial will become the first Indian film of 2026 to cross the Rs 100-crore mark on its opening day worldwide.
According to trade tracker Sacnilk, Jana Nayagan is expected to earn between Rs 80 crore and Rs 100 crore worldwide on its opening day, with the final figures likely to depend on spot bookings and audience word of mouth.
The action-packed entertainer stars Vijay alongside Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol, Mamitha Baiju, Prakash Raj, Gautham Vasudev Menon and Narain.
