On Monday, Lyca Productions announced that actor Vijay's son, Jason Sanjay Vijay is all set to make his directorial debut, which will be backed by the production house. 

In an official statement, Jason said, "It's an honour to get the opportunity to direct my first film for a prestigious production house like Lyca Productions. It has been a hub of encouraging talents and has created a stream of new filmmakers. I am glad that they liked my script, and have given me complete creative freedom to materialize it.
