Supporters gathered in large numbers at theatres, putting up giant banners, playing DJ music and traditional band performances, dancing and bursting firecrackers to mark the release of the film, which hit theatres after a prolonged wait with an 'A' certificate.

In Ranipet district, celebrations were held outside Lakshmi Theatre in Arcot, where TVK office-bearers and party workers welcomed the film's release with music, fireworks and dance performances. Similar celebrations were reported from theatres across the district.

In the Nilgiris district, 'Jananayagan' was screened at Ganapathy Theatre in Udhagamandalam (Ooty), where the first show began at 11:30 am owing to the hill station's cold weather.

Tamil Nadu Minister for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Madan Raja joined party workers and fans in celebrating the release. He was welcomed by party functionaries at Charing Cross before garlanding the statue of Mahatma Gandhi and offering prayers at the Sri Mariamman and Kaliamman temples for the film's success.

The Minister later cut a cake and distributed sweets outside Ganapathy Theatre before watching the film along with party workers and fans. When Vijay first appeared on the screen, he joined the audience in showering flowers and cheering inside the theatre.

Speaking to the media, Madan Raja said that Jananayagan would be a huge success and that he was extremely happy about its release. However, he added that it was emotionally difficult to accept that this would be Thalapathy Vijay's final film. He said that Vijay had now dedicated himself to public service, and that they, as his loyal party workers, would continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with him in serving the people.
