Actor Jai has come out in strong support of Vijay. He is stating that he considers the release day of the superstar’s much-awaited film Jana Nayagan. As the true festival of Pongal, even though the film’s release has now been postponed.
Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) timeline, Jai penned an emotional message in Tamil, expressing solidarity with Vijay amid the delay. He wrote, “There are obstacles that are always piling up to stop you. Breaking them and coming through is not something new for you — it is just your normal way. Like everyone else, as a fan and as a younger brother, I’m waiting, because Jana Nayagan’s release day itself is Pongal, anna.” He also added the hashtags #JanaNayagan and #PongalPostponed.
Jai is the latest Tamil actor to publicly back Vijay following the postponement of film. This film is being billed as the superstar’s final film before his full-time political entry. The film’s release was delayed after it reportedly did not receive clearance from the Censor Board in time.

Simbu wrote, “Dear @actorvijay anna, setbacks have never stopped you. You’ve crossed bigger storms than this. This too shall pass. The real Thiruvizha begins on the day Jana Nayagan releases.”
