The first teaser for Thalapathy Vijay's upcoming film Jana Nayagan was unveiled on the occasion of the actor's 51st birthday.

Titled First Roar, the short video gives fans their first glimpse of Vijay in the film.

The 65-second teaser opens with Vijay's voice saying, "You guys will live in my heart."

The actor is then seen walking through a battle-like setting in a police uniform, holding a lathi (baton). The teaser features visuals of destruction and calm intensity, setting the tone for a serious action drama.

Along with the teaser, the makers also released a poster showing Vijay seated on a throne with a sword in hand against a smoky, intense backdrop. The film will be Vijay's last before his expected shift to politics.

In January, on the occasion of India's Republic Day, Thalapathy Vijay surprised his fans by unveiling his look from the film. The film's first poster showed Vijay taking a selfie with a swarm of people in the backdrop.

Jana Nayagan is directed by H Vinoth and features music by Anirudh Ravichander. Venkat K Narayana produces the film under the banner of KVN Productions. It is set to release on January 9, 2026, during the Pongal festival.

Vijay was last seen in Venkat Prabhu's The Greatest Of All Time, which emerged as one of the highest-grossers of 2024. The sci-fi action film was produced by AGS Entertainment and focuses on an Indian secret service agent's mission that goes awry, only to resurface and haunt him.
