The Tamil film industry is abuzz with the ongoing censor issues surrounding Jana Nayagan, starring Thalapathy Vijay. The film, initially slated for a January 9 release, has been stuck in certification limbo for months, prompting actor and Nadigar Sangam representative Vishal to issue a strong warning against the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Vishal has threatened a massive strike involving over 1,500 Nadigar Sangam members if the CBFC doesn\'t resolve the issue.\r\nThe producer had approached the court seeking intervention, but the expected relief didn\'t materialize, and the case was later withdrawn. The film was then sent to the Revising Committee for reconsideration, but there\'s still no official update on the clearance status. With the release now pushed to June, the prolonged delay is causing significant financial strain for the producer.\r\nVishal\'s frustration is palpable as he questions the CBFC\'s decision making process, stating, \"I\'m against the idea of just 5 members deciding whether a film should be watched by 7 crore people in Tamil Nadu through censor.\" His statement has sparked a larger conversation about creative freedom and the functioning of the CBFC in the industry.\r\nThe situation has moved beyond just one film, with the entire industry awaiting clarity on Jana Nayagan\'s censor status and the possibility of a Nadigar Sangam strike. The debate highlights concerns about censorship and its impact on Tamil cinema, making it a critical moment for the industry.\r\n<div></div>

Ram Gopal Varma on Dhurandhar 2 vs Toxic. Ranveer Singh\'s Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge and Yash\'s Toxic are gearing for a blistering clash at the box office on 19 March 2026.\r\nWhile Dhurandhar&nbsp; The Revenge is the sequel to the blockbuster film Dhurandhar and expectations are high on it, Yash\'s Toxic is carrying immense interest as the film is a high octane mass action entertainer.\r\nIn the midst of all this, director Ram Gopal Varma spoke about the clash between Dhurandhar The Revenge and Toxic. He came up with the following post.\r\nTHE #Dhuroxic PARK\r\nNO, I am not talking about TWO BIG FILMS #Dhurandhar2 and #Toxic releasing on March 19th. I am actually talking about a NEVER BEFORE SEEN or EXPERIENCED mythical archetype EXPLODING in the GRAND ARENA of INDIAN CINEMAS.\r\nIt is a BATTLE between DAVID AND GOLIATH\r\nKGF&nbsp; 2&rsquo;s GOlIATH like collections suddenly looked like a tiny DAVID in front of #Dhurandar &lsquo;s GOLIATH collections.\r\nBut now the sequel to that GOLIATH #Dhurandhar2 , is the new DAVID staring up at #Toxic, the fresh GOLIATH\r\nI strongly believe that #Dhuroxic is not about North against South, not Bollywood against Sandalwood. It is actually a brutal clash between two CULTURES , not of regions, but of cinema\r\nThe principal difference between the two is that #Dhurandhar respects the audience&rsquo;s intelligence and #Toxic presumes their dumbness.\r\nKGF 2 was a LOCAL film that aimed at the DUMBNESS in the MASSES and&nbsp; }Dhurandhar aimed at the INTELLIGENCE in the MASSES\r\nTHAT is exactly why it became GLOBAL\r\n#Dhurandhar a reported 130 cr DAVID film (both versions together cost some 260 cr) hit some 1500 cr, proving that the so called MASSES are actually far more INTELLIGENT than what the MASALA MERCHANTS ever imagined.\r\nIt is IMPORTANT to note that @AdityaDharFilms&nbsp; never once presumed the audience was dumb, but after the film released, the MASSES answered in a thundering, earth-shaking voice: &ldquo;YES, WE ARE ACTUALLY THAT INTELLIGENT&hellip; THANK YOU FOR NOTICING.&rdquo;\r\nSo on March 19th, when the lights in the theatres go down across the world, two DAVIDS and two GOLIATHS will be fighting a BATTLE&nbsp; The fight will be between these 10 SAVAGE brutal truths\r\n1.&nbsp; Mindless hero worship VERSUS the audience themselves discovering heroes through their moral actions in the story\r\n2.&nbsp; GRAVITY defying stunts that mock physics and insult every school kid whoever studied NEWTON ,VERSUS the #Dhurandhar action so raw and real one&nbsp; &nbsp; actually feels the punches\r\n3.&nbsp; Background scores that scream &ldquo;CLAP AND WHISTLE NOW, YOU IDIOTS&rdquo; every five minutes VERSUS&nbsp; dead silence that lets brilliant performances do the TALKING\r\n4.&nbsp; 700 cr spent to make ONE guy look like an invincible God versus 130 cr spent to make EVERY character in #Dhurandhar feel equally human\r\n5.&nbsp; Treating AUDIENCES&nbsp; like dumb idiots who must clap and whistle on every CUE versus treating them like adults who can follow a complex plot, make their own judgements and don&rsquo;t need to be spoon fed by EAR SHATTERING&nbsp; background music\r\n6.&nbsp; Ultra slow motion hero entry shots and flying hair straight out of a shampoo ad VERSUS cold, calculating intelligence that actually challenges the viewer\r\n7.&nbsp; Reducing Indian cinema to a mass-hero worship ritual VERSUS cinema that excavates the intelligence hidden inside the masses minds\r\n8.&nbsp; Vulgar budgets blown on VFX fireworks, eyesore sets and stars just to hide creative vaccum&nbsp; VERSUS every single rupee in #Dhurandhar spent on crafting lethal, immersive emotions that stay with you forever\r\n9.&nbsp; A film that begs the audience to switch their brains off to enjoy it versus a film forcing you to think, feel and question every frame\r\nMONEY being POURED versus MONEY being PUT TO USE\r\nDISCLAIMER:\r\nNO, it is not my love for @AdityaDharFilms&nbsp; which made me write this, but it is my HOPE for INDIAN CINEMA. I am waiting with bated breath for MARCH&nbsp; 19th to know if INDIA is DHURANDHAR or TOXIC.\r\n<div></div>

For an artist at the very beginning of their journey, that stage isn\'t just a platform, it\'s their dream materialising. Hearing their voices would have reminded us all why we fell in love with cinema in the first place.&rdquo;\r\nShe continued&nbsp; &ldquo;Time constraints are inevitable in a show of this scale, but that one minute shouldn\'t be taken away from someone standing on that stage for the first time. Because for them, that one minute may last a lifetime.&rdquo;\r\n<div></div>
