Thalapathy Vijay’s last film gets early morning shows across major cities — Full theatre list, timings and runtime details inside

Thalapathy Vijay’s upcoming Tamil film Jana Nayagan is in the discussion these days. It is a political action thriller film directed by H. Vinoth and produced by KVN Productions. The film will hit the screens worldwide on January 9, 2026, on the occasion of Pongal. Ahead of the release, many important details about the film’s certification, runtime, and First Day First Show (FDFS) have been revealed, which has further increased the curiosity of the fans.

Why is advance booking of Jana Nayagan delayed in Tamil Nadu?

Earlier, there were reports that bookings in Tamil Nadu were being delayed as the film had yet to receive a certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Due to this, the sale of tickets could not start in the state. But according to industry tracker Sreedhar Pillai, now the process of censoring is almost complete. It is noted that the total runtime of the film is 3 hours, 3 minutes, and 43 seconds. As soon as the censor certificate is received, advance booking will be officially started in Tamil Nadu as well.
