Director Lingusamy had got to headlines wit consecutive hits of 'Aanandham', 'Run' and 'Sandakozhi'. However his previous fim 'Bheema' starring Vikram received lukewarm response leaving Lingusamy bounded to bad critics. Exactly now, he has determined to strike back with his forthcoming film' Paiyya'.

The Film's shooting started -off before few months across the highway locals of Bangalore- Mumbai. Post success of Paruthiveeran, it is been a long gap for Karthi as he was busy shooting for 'Aayirathil Oruvan' (nearly couple of years). Karthi does the lead role of a young guy with enchanting nature while Thamannah performs the role of his ladylove. Hindi film Industry's Milling Soman who made a great show with 'Pacchaikili Muthucharam' plays the antagonist part.

Right on the day the filming started, there have been buzzes that it is a remake of Hollywood Blockbuster 'Hitcher'. According to Lingusamy, he completely denies it saying the film is about a journey of a sweet guy and charming girl and the various charecters they encounter. Most of the talkie portions have been canned across the busy highway road of Bangalore- Mumbai.

Technically the film has an excellent crew of Yuvan Shankar Raja Scoring music for 5 songs. Brindha Sarathi will be taking care of the dialogues as Lingusamy just handles the story, screenplay and direction. Rajeevan who has worked on best eye-catching ambiences is the art director and Mathi is canning the best shots of the exotic locales. Right Now, the film's shooting has been stalled due to heavy downpour of rain in Mumbai. The film is produced by Lingusamy's brother Subash Chandra Bose under the banner of Tirupathi Brothers Media Pvt Ltd. Plans are made to release the film by Diwali.
