The countdown to the ultimate ‘Thalapathy’ celebration has officially begun. As Thalapathy Vijay prepares to bid a grand farewell to the silver screen before his full-time political journey, his final film, Jana Nayagan, is already rewriting the rules of the box office. Despite facing hurdles and a pending censor certificate in its home state, the film’s domestic advance booking has exploded, comfortably breezing past the ₹7 crore milestone.
According to Sacnilk reports, the advance booking of the film has ignited a massive box office storm, as fans scramble to witness Thalapathy Vijay’s final cinematic outing before his full-time entry into politics. As of today, January 7, 2026, the film has already crossed an incredible ₹50 crore in worldwide pre-sales, with the Indian market contributing over ₹7.38 crore despite bookings only recently opening in full force. The craze is most visible in Karnataka, where ticket prices in Bengaluru have soared to ₹2,000, and in international hubs like Malaysia, where it sold over 90,000 tickets in its first day alone.

Directed by H. Vinoth, ‘Jana Nayagan’ will be released in theatres on January 9, 2026.
According to IMDb, the movie's gist reads, “Thalapathy Vijay is adamant about getting even with a powerful businessman who cost him money. He is prepared to square off against the formidable foe and resolve their issues amicably.”
Jana Nayagan, also known as Thalapathy 69, is directed by H. Vinoth and serves as the final film of Thalapathy Vijay's acting career before he enters full-time politics.
