Thalapathy Vijay is currently busy with the shooting of his upcoming film Jana Nayagan, directed by H Vinoth. The movie, which is the Tamil star’s 69th big-screen project, is also said to be his last before he begins his full-fledged political career. According to some reports, the filming is 70 percent complete. However, the makers are yet to finalise the release date.

According to a report in Valai Pechu, the makers failed to clear the wages of FEFSI (Film Employees Federation of South India) workers for over 20 days, leading to a formal complaint being lodged against the production. Following this, FEFSI intervened and took action swiftly. The shoot has been halted until all outstanding payments are settled. When will the shooting resume is uncertain. Most of the portions have been shot in Chennai.
Vijay, who formed his party Tamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam last year, held a mega conference at Vikravandi in January earlier this year, revealed the film’s title in the form of a poster in which he was prominently featured as taking a selfie with a sea of humanity.
