The Hindi trailer of Jana Nayagan has triggered a backlash online. The film stars Vijay and is directed by H Vinoth. Audience response to the trailer has been largely negative.
While the visuals impressed some viewers, the Hindi dubbing voice became a major issue. Many fans expressed disappointment with the voice used in the Hindi version titled Jan Neta. They feel it does not suit Vijay’s screen presence.
Several fans are urging the production house to bring back Sanket Mhatre. He previously dubbed for Vijay in recent Hindi versions. Fans believe his voice connects better with North Indian audiences.
According to fans, retaining the current dubbing could harm the film’s Hindi prospects. They fear Jana Nayagan may turn into a disaster in the Hindi market. Sanket Mhatre’s voice, they say, has already built familiarity and trust.
Jana Nayagan is planned for release in North Indian multiplexes. The film will also stream on OTT platforms after an eight-week window. Fans argue that poor dubbing will reduce theatre footfalls.
The low pre booking numbers in North India have added to concerns. The hype for Jana Nayagan remains weak in the Hindi belt. Releasing the film with the same dubbing may worsen the situation.
It remains uncertain whether the makers will act on fan feedback. The decision to retain or replace the Hindi voice could be crucial. The coming days will reveal the production house’s final call.
