The Sigma film premiered that same day. A volunteer presented the framed photo to Vijay, who accepted it and held it high, drawing attention to his public support for his son on an important career milestone.

Sangeetha smiled and acknowledged the media, while Divya wore a black Sigma t-shirt to show her support. Jason was also present at the theater with his family.
