Jana Nayagan Crosses 1 Million Interests On BookMyShow Ahead Of Court Hearing

Despite being caught in a web of legal hurdles, actor Vijay's much-anticipated film Jana Nayagan continues to generate remarkable buzz among audiences. The film has crossed a significant milestone by registering over one million 'interests' on BookMyShow, even as its theatrical release remains uncertain.

Fans Eagerly Await Jana Nayagan's Release

A look at Jana Nayagan's BookMyShow page shows that more than one million users have clicked the 'I'm interested' option, signalling strong anticipation for the film whenever bookings open.

This surge in interest comes at a time when the film is yet to receive certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).

The film was slated to hit theatres on January 9, but days before the scheduled date, it was revealed that the CBFC had not cleared the project and had instead referred it to a revising committee. Since then, uncertainty has loomed over the release, with no official confirmation on when audiences will finally be able to watch the film on the big screen.

Legal Roadblocks And Uncertain Release Timeline

Last week, the Supreme Court dismissed a petition filed by the film's producer, KVN Productions LLP, seeking immediate certification for Jana Nayagan. A Bench comprising Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice Augustine George Masih declined to intervene, criticising the "blistering pace" adopted by the makers and pointing out that the matter is already scheduled for hearing before the Madras High Court Division Bench on January 20.

The producer had approached the top court after the Division Bench of the Madras High Court stayed an earlier Single Bench order that directed the CBFC to certify the film without delay. With limited legal options now available, the fate of Jana Nayagan hinges on the upcoming High Court hearing.

Adding to the significance is the fact that Jana Nayagan is being touted as Vijay's final film before his full-fledged entry into politics, following the launch of his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK).

India responded on Wednesday with precision missile strikes on terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. PM Modi, who is closely-monitoring the situation, has reportedly asked for his visit to Croatia, Norway, and the Netherlands, which was due next week, to be rescheduled.

Delhi to Get More EV Charging, Battery Swapping Stations as Cab Aggregators Increase E-Bikes

The NDMC is planning to increase the number of EV charging stations in Lutyens' Delhi and even provide battery swapping facilities at some of these points, a senior official said on Wednesday. With Delhi being among the most polluted capitals in the world, the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has been making a push for electric vehicles to nudge residents to opt for cleaner vehicle options. There are around 100 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations across the national capital at present and this would be the first time that some of them would have battery swapping facilities, which is quite prominent in Western countries, he said.

After Nitish Kumar's 'Praise', BJP Says Doors Closed For Him

The opposition BJP in Bihar on Thursday said that its doors were "closed" for Chief Minister Nitish Kumar who dumped the saffron party a year ago, stripping it of power in the state. State BJP President Samrat Choudhary made the averment to this effect in reply to queries from journalists about the Janata Dal United leader's address to the convocation ceremony of Mahatma Gandhi Central University at Motihari. Speaking in the presence of President Droupadi Murmu and Governor Rajendra Arlekar, Mr Kumar had freely spoken of the tussle he had with the then Congress government at the Centre for getting a university approved for Motihari, where Mahatma Gandhi had launched the Champaran Satyagraha. Without mentioning Prime Minister Narendra Modi by name, Mr Kumar acknowledged that the project saw the light of the day only after a change of guard "in 2014" as the UPA government "initially refused and after much persuasion agreed in principle but did not move for...
