They will visit a studio in the US for a 3D VFX scan of Vijay for one of his characters in the film.” Shah Rukh Khan’s Fan and Kamal Haasan’s Indian 2 are some of the Indian films who have done de-aging 3D effects for the actor.

While SRK played a teenager in Fan and Kamal is speculated to play a younger character using AI effects in Indian 2, we do not know yet on whether the 3D VFX scan for Vijay is being done for the younger version of his character or for the older version.
