Jason Sanjay’s directorial debut, Sigma, has been pushed to a later date. Sanjay, the son of actor-turned Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay, is set to make his debut in the film industry as a director. His film, Sigma, was set to release earlier on July 31. However, the makers on Wednesday announced that the film will now be released in October.
The reason for the postponement of the film’s release has not been revealed by the makers.
On Thursday, Lyca Productions, the studio backing Sigma, shared a new poster of the film with the new release date. Sanjay also shared the post on his Instagram. "Mark the date for the heist on October 2. SIGMA is all set to light up the screens," the caption read.
The poster featured the film's lead, Sundeep Kishan, with the new release date emblazoned on it.
