Developing
In Short: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister CM Vijay raised a framed photo of his son Jason Sanjay above his head during a campaign roadshow in Madhurandhagam, drawing attention from thousands of supporters.
Jason Sanjay, who stars in the film 'Sigma,' was present at the screening with his family as the movie began its theatrical run at Kamala Cinemas in Chennai.
Jason described his father as a quiet person who takes his time to form opinions, noting that Vijay was among the first to support his decision to pursue filmmaking.
The film 'Sigma' collected Rs 2.35 crore net in India on its opening day, grossing Rs 2.70 crore across 1,813 shows, according to trade tracker Sacnilk.
Jason's mother, Sangeetha Sornalingam, and sister, Divya Saasha, also showed their support for the film, with Divya wearing a black Sigma T-shirt.
In an interview with Pearle Maaney, Jason had previously spoken about his expectations from his father after he watched the film.
Vijay was on an election campaign roadshow in Madhurandhagam on Friday morning when a party volunteer handed him the framed photograph of his son.
Jason's sister and mother were at the theatre for the first-day-first-show of Sigma, while Jason had spoken about his father's reaction to the film in the days before its release.
