Jana Nayagan continues to attract an audience despite receiving mixed reviews from critics. Starring CM Vijay, the political action drama has reportedly collected over ₹230 crore worldwide, and now the team has given another reason to fans to revisit the theatres. During the film's success party in Chennai on Monday, director H Vinoth revealed that they are considering bringing back six scenes that were removed from the theatrical cut.

Deleted scenes to be added

Sharing the news, Vinoth said, "There are six scenes that we had deleted. There are two fun (comedy) scenes featuring sir (Vijay), two action scenes and two other emotional scenes."

WION review of Jana Nayagan

An excerpt from the WION review of the film reads, "For the Thalapathy Vijay maniacs(Thalapathy Veriyans, as they are called in Tamil), Jana Nayagan could certainly offer many big mass moments to celebrate while viewing on the big screen with the blaring BGM. However, even that grand celebration risks getting drowned in a plot that force-fits too many themes and too many characters."

About Jana Nayagan

The film released in theatres on July 23 after a delay from its original January release date.
