Thalapathy Kacheri: Vijay’s Final Dance Goes Viral, Hits 10M Views Within Hours

Actor Vijay’s final on-screen performance is already creating waves online. The first single from his upcoming film Jana Nayagan, titled Thalapathy Kacheri, has crossed 10 million views on YouTube within hours of its release on November 8. Composed by Anirudh Ravichander, the song features vocals by Vijay, Anirudh, and Arivu, and quickly began trending on X (formerly Twitter) across 22 countries.

The energetic track serves as both a musical spectacle and a farewell tribute to Vijay’s illustrious acting career, as he prepares to transition full-time into politics with his Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam party. The 3-minute-21-second video opens with Anirudh performing on stage before cutting to scenes of a grey-haired Vijay dancing amidst a cheering

crowd. Actors Mamitha Baiju and Pooja Hegde later join him, adding to the celebratory tone of the song.

The video also features moments that nod to Vijay’s cinematic journey, showcasing glimpses inspired by his memorable roles over the years. Towards the end, Anirudh is heard asking for “one last dance,” to which Vijay responds with his signature moves, a symbolic farewell to his fans before his new chapter begins.

Jana Nayagan, directed by H. Vinoth and produced by Venkat K. Narayana under KVN Productions, is set for a theatrical release in January 2026. The film stars Vijay alongside Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol, Mamitha Baiju, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Prakash Raj, Priyamani, and Narain.

Vijay, who began his career as a child actor in the 1984 Tamil film Vetri, went on to appear in several movies including Kudumbam (1984), Vasantha Raagam (1986), Sattam Oru Vilayaattu (1987), and Ithu Engal Neethi (1988), before rising to superstardom.

According to a report by Let’s Cinema on X (formerly Twitter), Jana Nayagan will premiere on Amazon Prime Video following its theatrical release. The streaming giant has reportedly secured the film’s digital rights for a whopping Rs 110 crores, though an official confirmation from the makers is yet to be announced.

If the report holds true, this would mark one of the biggest OTT deals in Tamil cinema history, reflecting the immense anticipation surrounding Vijay’s swansong film.
