Jana Nayakan will not be released till April 30?

Fans of Vijay are once again left waiting as his much-awaited film Jana Nayagan faces another release hurdle. Canadian distributor York Cinemas has confirmed that the film will not hit theatres before April 30, pushing it further beyond its earlier schedule.

The update was shared through York Cinemas’ official social media handle, sparking confusion among fans. The film had earlier missed its planned January 9, 2026 release, which was timed around the Pongal festival. The distributor’s brief note did not announce a new date, but clearly stated that audiences should not expect the film anytime soon.

The delay is reportedly due to production setbacks and pending certification from the Central Board of Film Certification. Despite the disappointment, fans can revisit Vijay’s hit Theri, which is set for a theatrical re-release on February 20.
