The debut directorial project of filmmaker Jason Sanjay has encountered steady yet unchanging ticket sales during its first weekend in theaters. Titled Sigma, the new feature film finished its third day at the domestic box office without showing significant upward or downward momentum in its daily takings.
Trade analysts following the release noted that the cinematic venture brought in identical figures on consecutive days over the weekend. The domestic net earnings remained steady at 1.50 crore rupees on both Saturday and Sunday.
With these weekend figures included, the cumulative domestic collection for the film reached 5.35 crore rupees by the end of its third day in cinemas. Regional analysis indicates that the Tamil-language version of the movie drove the majority of these ticket sales, pulling in stronger numbers compared to its Telugu counterpart.
Audience turnout for the Tamil screenings showed particular strength during afternoon showtimes, which registered notable theater occupancy rates across various regions. Despite this favorable showing during midday slots, the overall box office trajectory remained horizontal rather than expanding as the weekend progressed.
The project marks a notable milestone for Jason Sanjay, who entered the entertainment industry with a focus on directing rather than acting. Such a debut draws considerable attention from audiences and industry observers alike, given his family background in the South Indian film sector.
As the movie moves past its opening weekend and into the weekday exhibition period, industry trackers will be monitoring whether word-of-mouth momentum can shift the current box office pattern. For now, the initial three-day run demonstrates a stable foundational audience, particularly among Tamil-speaking moviegoers.
