Jason Sanjay’s directorial debut Sigma, starring Sundeep Kishan, opened with an estimated ₹2.35 crore net in India on its first day, October 2, 2026, according to trade tracker Koimoi — winning the day’s Kollywood box-office clash on the long Gandhi Jayanti weekend.
| Measure | Day 1 (2 Oct) | Source |
|---|---|---|
| India net | ₹2.35 crore | Koimoi |
| India gross | About ₹2.7 crore | Asianet Newsable |
| Including overseas | Over ₹3 crore | Asianet Newsable |
| Tamil / Telugu versions (net) | About ₹1.50 crore / ₹0.85 crore | NDTV Profit |
These are trade estimates; the producers have not released official figures. Day 2 numbers were still being compiled at the time of writing.
Koimoi describes the opening as a good start for a small-budget film, and the second-highest opening day for Sundeep Kishan as a solo lead — just behind Michael (₹2.65 crore net). Asianet Newsable reported that Sigma took the number-one spot at the box office for the week. Strong word of mouth over the holiday weekend will decide how far it goes from here.
Sigma is an action-adventure heist film, released in Tamil and Telugu, with music by S. Thaman. It marks the feature directorial debut of Jason Sanjay, son of Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay. On release day, the Chief Minister held up a framed photo of Jason from the film during his Madurantakam road show.
