Jana Nayagan producer upset over A certificate

Speaking in a promotional video alongside Bhagavanth Kesari director Anil Ravipudi, Narayana said the makers had hoped the political drama would receive a U/A certificate. He stated, “Our film promotes girl child empowerment and encourages positive social change. We were disappointed that it was changed from a U/A to an A certificate, as it is meant to inspire and make young people think. We hoped families could watch it together, so the message would reach more people, but we respect the Censor Board's decision.”
