Jason Sanjay, son of Tamil cinema icon Thalapathy Vijay, is set to mark his directorial debut with the film Sigma. The announcement, made by Lyca Productions, has generated considerable excitement among fans and industry insiders alike. Sigma stars Sundeep Kishan in the lead role and is billed as an action-adventure comedy.
Jason Sanjay, who made a brief appearance as a child actor in the 2009 film Vettaikkaran, has since pursued formal film education, honing his skills behind the camera. He has showcased his talent through short films, including Pull The Trigger, a murder mystery that garnered praise for its cinematic vision. Sigma represents a significant step for the young filmmaker as he embarks on his journey as a director in the Tamil film industry.
The first look poster of Sigma features Sundeep Kishan seated on a pile of cash and gold bars, with a bandaged hand, hinting at a gritty and intriguing storyline. Sundeep Kishan shared the film's title and first look on social media, explaining the concept behind Sigma as a fearless, independent spirit who follows his own path, undeterred by societal norms.
Sigma boasts a supporting cast including Faria Abdullah, Raju Sundaram, Anbu Thasan, Yog Japee, Sampath Raj, Kiran Konda, and Magalakshmi Sudharsanan. Renowned composer Thaman S is on board to create the music, while Krishnan Vasant is handling the cinematography.
According to reports, nearly 95% of the film's shooting has been completed across various locations, including Chennai, Salem, Thalakona, and Thailand. The film is expected to blend elements of a high-stakes treasure hunt and criminal heist with humor and thrills.
Lyca Productions officially announced the film's title on social media, accompanied by the caption "The quest begins". The film is aiming for a simultaneous release in Tamil and Telugu, targeting an early summer premiere.
While Thalapathy Vijay is currently focused on his political endeavors, sources suggest his upcoming film Jana Nayagan will be his last acting project. This makes Sigma a highly anticipated debut, with fans and industry observers eager to witness Jason Sanjay's directorial talent and unique vision. The film is perceived as a major opportunity for the young director to establish himself in the industry.
