On 14 June 2024, the makers announced on a change of title from Ma Po Si to a new one Sir, after the veteran politician, freedom fighter and poet Mylai Ponnuswamy Sivagnanam aka Ma.Po.Si's granddaughter Parameshwari expressing her concern for using her grandfather's name.[7][22] In the title-change clarification video released by the director, he expressed the title-change is due to reasons that are all happy ones and not problematic.[6][22] He further added that, the new title Sir has been made after careful consideration and planning to align with our vision for the project.[23][24]
