Jana Nayagan's first roar to unveil on June 22
For those unaware, on June 22, 2025, Thalapathy Vijay will celebrate his 51st birthday, and following the usual norm, the makers will be dropping an update for his fans.
In 2024, the makers of The Greatest Of All Time aka The GOAT, shared a similar update at midnight, presenting a short glimpse of the superstar in dual roles.
Talking about the upcoming movie, Jana Nayagan (meaning People's Hero) is a political action drama, directed by H Vinoth. The Tamil-language film is expected to feature the superstar as a former police officer with actors like Bobby Deol and Pooja Hegde playing co-leads.
With these performers in the lead, the movie features an ensemble cast of actors like Gautham Vasudev Menon, Prakash Raj, Narain, Priyamani, Mamitha Baiju, and many more in key roles.
Additionally, reports indicate that Shruti Haasan has also been roped in to play a crucial character in the film, making it her second collaboration with Vijay.
As the movie is expected to be the final project of Thalapathy Vijay before entering politics as a full-timer, Anirudh Ravichander is crafting the musical tracks and scores. In a recent interview, sensational singer Hanumankind confirmed that he has performed a song in the movie.
Interestingly, in the early days, there were speculations that Jana Nayagan would be the remake of Nandamuri Balakrishna starrer Bhagavanth Kesari. However, reports suggested that Jana Nayagan makers bought remake rights for the film to use a 'Good Touch, Bad Touch' scene from the Telugu movie.
Coming to Thalapathy Vijay's previous work, the superstar was last seen in the spy action drama The GOAT, which is available for streaming on Netflix.
