Vijay Raises Son Jason Sanjay’s Sigma Photo at Roadshow
Jason Sanjay made a film called Sigma, which opened in theatres on October 2.
His father, Vijay, was at an election roadshow in Madhurandhagam that day.
A volunteer gave Vijay a framed picture connected to the film, and he held it high for the crowd to see.
Vijay could not attend the first screening because he had other engagements.
Jason watched the film at a Chennai cinema with his mother and sister.
The film stars Sundeep Kishan and is an action-adventure heist story.
One report said the film earned Rs 2.35 crore net in India on its first day.
Another said its opening in Telugu was disastrous.
