'Jana Nayagan' Movie Case : Live Updates From Supreme Court Hearing

The Supreme Court will hear the 'Jana Nayagan' movie case today.

A bench of Justices Dipankar Datta & AG Masih will hear the plea of film's producer KVN Productions seeking CBFC clearance for the Vijay film.

The petition has been filed challenging the Madras High Court Division Bench's order staying the Single Bench direction to the Central Board of Film Certification to immediately clear the film.

Though the Examining Committee of the Chennai Regional Office had decided to certify the film with U/A 16+ certificate, the CBFC Chairperson later suo motu decided to send the film to the Revising Committee, based on a complaint filed by one member of the Examining Committee. The Single Bench held that this act of the CBFC Chairperson was improper and unsustainable in law. However, the Division Bench of the High Court, on CBFC's appeal, stayed the Singe Bench's order.
