Another major attraction for international audiences is that Jana Nayagan will be screened completely uncut in the UK.
CBFC clearance after multiple edits
In India, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) cleared the film with an 'A' certificate after months of delay. The certification came after the makers implemented 12 cuts, including edits to political references and other sensitive scenes, ahead of the film's July 23 release.
The title slate has also been modified. Vijay's name will now appear as 'The Honourable Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu C. Joseph Vijay'.
