Thirupaachi Re-Release to Coincide with Jason Sanjay's Directorial Debut Sigma in October 2026
The 2005 Tamil film Thirupaachi, starring Vijay and Trisha, is set for a theatrical re-release around October 1-2, 2026. This revival coincides closely with the release of Sigma, the directorial debut of Vijay's son, Jason Sanjay, scheduled for October 2. Thirupaachi was a commercial success known for its action and family themes, while Sigma is described as an action entertainer blending heist and comedy elements. The near-simultaneous releases create a unique box-office scenario featuring a father-son film clash.
