The announcement video captured attention with its array of elements in just one minute. Jason Sanjay and Sundeep Kishan take centre stage as the director and hero, respectively, with Thaman’s engaging music setting the tone in the background.
Although the partnership between the young director and Lyca Productions was first revealed in 2023, the project experienced a year-long delay before its official launch. The project, presented by Subaskaran, is currently referred to as Jason Sanjay 01.
Who is Jason Sanjay?
Jason Sanjay’s entry into cinema has already generated buzz, given his lineage. He completed a Film Production Diploma at Toronto Film School from 2018 to 2020, before earning a BA (Hons) in Screenwriting in London between 2020 and 2022. So far, he has directed a short film titled Pull The Trigger.
GKM Tamil Kumaran from Lyca Productions commented in a press release, "When Jason Sanjay presented the narrative, we felt something fresh and, most importantly, it had the unique selling point of drawing Pan-Indian attention." Sundeep Kishan also announced his collaboration with Jason Sanjay. Kishan was last seen in Dhanush’s Raayan, which hit theatres on 26th July 2024. Although the announcement video indicated that filming would begin soon, the full cast and crew details are yet to be revealed.
