Jore is a 2004 Indian Tamil-language action comedy film directed by Selva, starring Sathyaraj alongwith his son Sibiraj. It was released on 11 June 2004.[1] [2] The film was opened to positive reviews from the film critics and audience.[3]
Sabapathy (Sathyaraj) is a widower who owns a cinema theater and school. He treats his son Sakthi (Sibiraj) like his friend. At college, he rode a horse into the sunset (Gajala), the daughter of a corrupt politician named Lingam (Kota Srinivasa Rao). Afterwards, Lingam's son Vijay (Ramana) clashes against Sakthi at the college election. Despite having support from his father, Vijay loses the election. Lingam then enters into the conflict. In the end, Sakthi kills both Lingam and Vijay.
After his debut film Student Number 1, Sibiraj signs his second film with the same production banner, Sena Films. And this time sharing frames with him is father Satyaraj, the duo carrying their real-life roles into reel-life and playing father and son. While Gajala plays the romantic interest of Sibiraj, Bhanupriya plays Satyaraj's wife in the film.
The cast also includes Telugu villain Kota Srinivasa Rao (of 'Saamy' fame) and Vadivelu among others. Shooting commenced at Pollachi on 25 December, with a schedule of about 30 days at locations in Udumalaipettai and Marayur. The songs are to be shot abroad.[4]

Indiaglitz described the film as "A typical 'masala' film, Jore with its loose screenplay and amateur twists and turns, can be rightly called as as(sic) 'bore'" and criticized that "director Selvah has given old wine in a new bottle". But praised the comedy scenes : "Interestingly, it is Sathyaraj and Vadivelu who provide relief to the audience in the movie". Bizhat described "It's interesting to watch the father - son combination together in Jore. Sibi Raj has matched up to his father's acting and gives a good account as an actor".[8]
