Directed by Boopathy Pandian · Music by Vidyasagar · November 2005
Mass action blockbuster. Vijay as a bold hero fighting for the poor. Huge hit.
This was Vijay's film 43 of 69 as a lead actor — counted from his debut Naalaiya Theerpu (1992) — released in 2005 during the 2000s.
Soundtrack composed by Vidyasagar
Second consecutive blockbuster with director Perarasu after Thirupaachi.
Its Diwali 2005 release smashed opening records across Tamil Nadu (site records).
Sivakasi (2005) stands among the commercial high points of Vijay's 69-film journey as a lead actor — a film that resonated deeply with audiences and reinforced his stature as one of Tamil cinema's most bankable stars of the 2000s. Every blockbuster in this filmography was another step on the road that ultimately led from cinema halls to the Chief Minister's chair.
