The producers of Jana Nayagan have released a second-look poster for the upcoming Thalapathy movie as a special treat for fans, just hours after unveiling the title and first-look poster. The poster features Vijay brandishing a whip as a tribute to the legend of Tamil cinema, MGR. It is most likely a homage to the late actor's iconic fight scene from the classic movie Kadhal Vahanam.

Considering that MGR was both an actor and a politician, and Jana Nayagan will be Vijay's last movie before he enters politics, the reference is particularly fitting.
