Jana Nayagan's popularity is not limited to India. Advance bookings have also received an overwhelming response overseas, particularly in the UK, where the distributor revealed that thousands of tickets were sold within the first hour of bookings opening

The excitement surrounding Vijay's Jana Nayagan is at an all-time high even before advance bookings have opened in Tamil Nadu. In Bengaluru, where ticket sales have already begun, the much-awaited 6 am First Day First Show (FDFS) sold out within minutes.

Bengaluru theatres have scheduled 6 am screenings, making them the earliest available shows for the film. The coveted FDFS tickets disappeared almost instantly, with many Vijay fans now reportedly planning to travel to nearby towns to catch the first screening.

While Karnataka has already opened advance bookings, Tamil Nadu is expected to begin ticket sales on July 19. The first shows of Jana Nayagan in the state are likely to start around 9 am, in line with its usual release pattern.

With an estimated release across 7,000 to 8,000 screens worldwide, Jana Nayagan is set to be one of India's biggest theatrical releases, according to Sacnilk.
