Jana Nayagan effect: GV Prakash delays Immortal; Vijay’s son Jason’s Sigma may follow | Tamil News
3 min readHyderabadJul 15, 2026 08:49 PM IST The confirmation of Jana Nayagan‘s July 23 release has triggered a domino effect across the Tamil film industry, with multiple films scrambling to vacate the theatrical window around Vijay’s final film. The first to publicly step aside was actor-composer GV Prakash Kumar, whose supernatural horror film Immortal was originally scheduled to release on July 23, the same day as Jana Nayagan. GV Prakash announced the postponement on X on Tuesday, framing it not as a commercial retreat but as a gesture of respect. “When Thalapathy arrives, one simply has to step aside. Especially for this one, the last time. Best of luck, Team Jana Nayagan,” he wrote. “Immortal will release in theatres on September 4 with your support and love.” Thalapathy vandha thalli poyi dhaaney aaganum ❤️❤️ adhuvum oneLast time ❤️ ….
