The upcoming Tamil action thriller, Jana Nayagan, starring Thalapathy Vijay, is already generating strong buzz following its trailer release.
Fans have praised the scale and energy of the trailer's visuals. However, the buzz around the trailer is not about the movie's content, but rather an AI logo that appears in a clip from the trailer.
Some viewers claimed that a few scenes in the trailer were likely edited using AI, as they displayed the Gemini AI logo in the bottom right corner of the screen. Let's see what the rumors are all about.
How The AI Debate Started
Soon after the trailer went live, a netizen shared a clip on X. The post pointed to a shot around the 23-second mark in the video. It focused on a scene of Vijay Thalapathy loading his shotgun in the trailer. The user claimed that the clip showed the Gemini AI logo in the corner of the frame.
The post quickly went viral. The user called out the makers for allegedly using AI in such a big-budget production. Many others soon started checking the trailer at the same timestamp.
People who have closely watched the trailer noticed that the shot looks different from the rest. The movement appears smoother and less natural. At the time of writing, the Gemini logo is clearly visible at the bottom corner. It appears for just a split second at the 23-second mark, so viewers must look closely to catch it.
So far, there has been no official statement from the Jana Nayagan makers on the matter. They have not confirmed or denied the use of AI for that scene. Still, based on what viewers are seeing in the trailer, the claim has gained strong traction online.
