Jana Nayagan’s end credits officially reveal Vijay’s farewell from acting
Till the release of Jana Nayagan, there were reports that Vijay is planning to retire from acting, but there was no proof of it. However, towards the end credits of the film, Vijay’s fans got an emotional surprise as the end credits of Jana Nayagan feature glimpses from Thalapathy’s 34 long years in cinema, featuring his 69 films.

Vijay became emotional while talking about his final film, Jana Nayagan
Jana Nayagan’s craze began months before its release, as people blocked tickets when pre-booking began. The film added another milestone to Vijay’s career as it crossed 1 million ticket sales on a ticketing platform. Vijay scripts history with third straight 1M+ pre-sales milestone. This achievement came before the first show of the film started.
Ever since the release of the film, people embraced the sentiment of seeing Vijay for the one last time on the big screen. It was their moment of one last First Day First Show, one last chance to blow the whistle, one last chance to dance their hearts out with their superstar Vijay. When theatres opened on July 23, 2026, it was more like a festival in Chennai.
But by the time the end credits rolled out, people were seen wiping their tears, and it was obvious what they felt in their hearts. The film's promotion reinforced the emotional feeling with the lines: "One last First Day. One last First Show". But when the first show ended, many reports saw an array of fans getting out of the theatres, crying their hearts out, making it a surreal moment.

When the Thalapathy Kacheri was played in theatres, fans got a glimpse of the Vijay they had witnessed over the past 34 years. He danced with the same infectious energy that has defined him over the years. Giving the final shot with all his energy was a tribute to his fans as a final celebration.
When Vijay promoted the audio launch of Jana Nayagan in Malaysia, he got a little emotional talking about his last film. While addressing the media and crowd, his voice was heavy with emotion as he talked about his career. However, the actor simply said:
"I don't know whether to say it or not, but my last film is a little painful, right? What do you want me to do?"
