The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has cleared the upcoming action-adventure heist comedy Sigma, directed by Jason Sanjay, for release with a U/A certificate. The film, featuring Sundeep Kishan in the lead role, is set to hit screens worldwide on 2 October 2025.
Official Confirmation

The post put to rest any lingering uncertainty about the film's release schedule.
Who Is Behind Sigma
Jason Sanjay, who directs the film, is the son of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay. The film has been produced by Subaskaran under the Lyca Productions banner — one of the most prominent production houses in South Indian cinema. Music for the project has been composed by S. Thaman, cinematography is by Krishnan Vasant, and editing is handled by National Award-winning editor K. L. Praveen.
What the Trailer Reveals
A recently released trailer offers a glimpse into the film's narrative: the protagonist, played by Sundeep Kishan, is betrayed but chooses to fight back and reclaim what he has lost. At the heart of the story is a ₹500 crore racket involving drugs and gambling, pulling the lead character into a high-stakes world of crime and deception. The trailer also shows a romantic angle, with the hero's love interest being an RJ named Sam, portrayed by Faria Abdullah.
The heist plot thickens when the protagonist's carefully orchestrated plan is disrupted by the antagonist Reddy, played by Sampath Raj, forcing the hero to return stronger and more determined.
Cast and Distribution
Beyond Sundeep Kishan and Faria Abdullah, the film features Raju Sundaram, Sampath Raj, Shiv Pandit, Anbu Thasan, and Yog Japee in prominent roles. On the distribution front, Mythri Movie Distributors Ltd will handle the release in Coastal Andhra and Telangana, while NVR Cinema will manage distribution in the Ceded area.
What to Expect on Release Day
With its censor clearance confirmed and a high-profile release date aligned with the Gandhi Jayanti holiday weekend, Sigma enters the arena with considerable commercial backing and audience curiosity amplified by Jason Sanjay's high-profile family connection. Whether the film can translate pre-release buzz into box-office numbers will be closely watched across Telugu and Tamil-speaking markets.
