Jananayagan Producer To Once Again Appeal To Supreme Court

Vijay's fans are eagerly waiting for Jananayagan to receive clearance from the court or the Censor Board, but the film's issues remain unresolved. The Madras High Court Division Bench has set aside the earlier order of the Single Judge, who had directed the CBFC to issue a certificate to the film. The court ruled that the CBFC Chairperson acted within legal authority in referring Jananayagan to the Revising Committee.

The producer is expected to challenge the judgment by approaching the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, frustration is growing among fans as Jananayagan continues to face delays and is not getting the clearance. Some fans feel that instead of moving to the Supreme Court, the producer should consider approaching the Revising Committee of the CBFC.

The Madras High Court observed that the film contains certain visuals and dialogues suggesting foreign powers creating large-scale religious conflict in India, which could disturb religious harmony. The court also noted that the film includes several army-related references, but no defence expert was included in the Examining Committee. The court emphasized that these were serious issues requiring proper verification before granting certification.

The appeal was allowed, the Single Judge's order was set aside, and the matter was sent back for reconsideration under proper legal procedure. The court made it clear that the final decision on whether the referral to the Revising Committee was lawful will now be examined afresh. Going by all these issues it is almost clear that the film might not see the light before Tamil Nadu Elections. It will only release in Summer post Elections.
