The teaser launch of upcoming Kannada film Jimmy — which was held on Sunday evening, 25 June — was quite a special one for “Abhinaya Chakravarthy” Kiccha Sudeep.

His nephew Sanchith Sanjeev is all set to make a debut with Jimmy as an actor and director. The film is produced Sudeep’s wife Priya.

“This could not have been more special with two biggest stars of the Kannada film industry — Ravichandran and Shiva Rajkumar — coming to bless Sanchith.” Kiccha Sudeep said on the occasion.

The star actor-director took a back seat at the event as a “common audience” which he lightheartedly expressed as “not hog the limelight more than his nephew on his special day”.

However, it was Saanvi Sudeep, the daughter of Kiccha Sudeep, who was the highlight of the evening. Saanvi has penned the lyrics for the teaser of Jimmy.

“I knew my daughter could sing well but never thought she could do this well as a professional playback singer.” Kiccha Sudeep remarked.

“I was only told that they are making Saanvi sing a song for the movie. Vasuki has done a great job with the music. Saanvi sounds so professional as a singer.” He added.

Meanwhile, Dr Shiva Rajkumar welcomed Sanchith Sanjeev to the “S” group as he mentioned himself and Kiccha Sudeep whose name starts with the letter “S”.
