\r\nThalapathy Vijay\'s last film, Jana Nayagan, is facing unexpected hurdles ahead of its January 9 release. The film\'s censor case hearing has been postponed to tomorrow, leaving the producers and fans in limbo. The team had submitted the film for censor certification last month, and after making the required changes, they resubmitted it. However, the certificate is still pending.\r\nThe delay has prompted the producers to approach the court, with the judge asking them to file a petition. The hearing is now scheduled for tomorrow at the Madras High Court, leaving the fate of the film\'s release uncertain. The film\'s release date is just three days away, and the delay is causing concern among fans and the production team.\r\nMeanwhile, Vijay is facing another challenge as he has been summoned by the CBI in connection with the Karur stampede case. The incident occurred during his rally on September 27, resulting in 41 deaths and around 60 injuries. The CBI has asked Vijay to appear for questioning on January 12 at their Delhi headquarters.\r\nThe Supreme Court had ordered a CBI probe into the incident, and investigators have stated that security guideline failures and lack of proper arrangements contributed to the tragedy. With the CBI questioning and the censor delay, Vijay is facing significant challenges ahead of his film\'s release.\r\n
