Vijay's Jana Nayagan Faces Certification Delays
There's a big movie called 'Jana Nayagan' starring Vijay that's having trouble getting approved by the censor board.
The censor board thinks the movie might cause problems between different religious groups and has some scenes about the Army that need checking.
The high court recently said the censor board should take more time to check these issues before allowing the movie to be released.
Ravi Kishan, who is both an actor and a member of parliament, has offered to help.
He said he can talk to the censor board and even raise the issue in parliament to make the approval process faster and better.
He also mentioned that the censor board has a lot of work to do, which might be causing the delays.
Vijay's father, SA Chandrasekhar, has spoken out, saying that it's normal for those entering politics to face obstacles.
He mentioned a stampede that happened during Vijay's political rally in Karur, indicating that Vijay is prepared to face any challenges.
Vijay's film 'Jana Nayagan' faces certification delays due to concerns over communal disharmony and Army references.
The Madras High Court set aside a single judge's order that directed the CBFC to grant the censor certificate immediately.
Actor-politician Ravi Kishan offers to intervene and help resolve the issue.
Ravi Kishan suggests the censor board's workload and scrutiny cause delays in certification.
The high court bench said the issue raised was serious and required due verification before screening.
Vijay's father, SA Chandrasekhar, breaks his silence, stating that it's normal for those entering politics to face obstacles.
Chandrasekhar mentions a stampede during Vijay's political rally in Karur, indicating Vijay's preparedness to face challenges.
