During the conversation, Jason Sanjay joked that it was almost impossible to keep anything hidden from his mother, Sangeetha Sornalingam. Describing her as the family's unofficial detective, he said, “My mom is like a spy. Whenever I try to cheat and hang out separately, I will get caught." He went on to recall how one unplanned outing quickly turned into a stressful situation for everyone at home.

Jason revealed that one night, while everyone in the family was asleep, he quietly took the car out without informing anyone. He returned only the following morning, and his switched-off phone only added to his family's concern.

"There was one incident when everyone in my family was asleep at night. I drove the car at night without informing them and returned back in the morning. My mobile phone was switched off," he recalled.

By the time he got home, the situation had escalated. "They were about to file that I’m missing. When I returned in the morning, it was a big scene," Jason added, recalling his family's reaction.
