Kollywood Actor Vijay surprised everyone recently with the first look of his film, Jana Nayagan. The title and the first look drew mixed reactions from both the fans and the audience. The film’s shoot was expected to complete by this Summer, and the release date was also initially fixed for Dussehra or Diwali this year. But, there is a delay in the shoot, which is also causing OTT issues for the film.
The film’s new release date is currently speculated to be for Sankranthi season next year. The makers are yet to fix their streaming partner. The quoted amount by the makers is also not feasible for the platforms. It is said that Netflix has already locked its films for the year 2025 and cannot afford price for this year. The high remuneration and big budget for the film are the main reason for this.
It is also believed that if the film’s release date is fixed for 2026, then the OTT platform is ready to acquire it for a huge price. The makers are also exploring the options with the other OTT platforms which may not okay the quoted amount by them. So, it is likely that the film will be bought by Netflix and the release will also be mostly for Sankranthi next year..
