Some stars are born under the arc lights, others walk into it carrying a legacy, and Jason Sanjay, Vijay’s son, seems to be doing a bit of both.
By: Shanaz B Syed | 4 Nov 2025 2:57 PM ISTSome stars are born under the arc lights, others walk into it carrying a legacy, and Jason Sanjay, Vijay’s son, seems to be doing a bit of both. His first film as a director hasn’t even dropped its first look yet, but somehow it’s already buzzing all over social media. With Sundeep Kishan playing the lead, there’s a weird mix of curiosity and excitement floating around both Kollywood and Tollywood.
Rumour, Jason first pitched the script to Dulquer Salmaan, who apparently loved it. But Dulquer’s schedule was packed, so Jason didn’t wait around. He roped in Sundeep Kishan instead, who’s got a solid base in Telugu.
The film, produced by Lyca Productions, isn’t some small first step either. It’s rumoured to be a ₹30 crore setup, with Thaman S composing music. Word is that it’s a stylish entertainer with a Hollywood-ish touch but still rooted in Indian emotion. They’re planning for a theatrical release after Jana Nayagan, probably around March 2026.
People are already calling this the next-gen Thalapathy chapter. Whether Jason’s direction matches the buzz or not, one thing’s sure, the kid’s got guts. He’s not cashing in on his father’s name but walking his own path, and with the hype already cooking, everyone’s just waiting to see what this debut looks like when the curtain finally lifts.
