Lingusamy while speaking to the media said,” Aayirathil Oruvan which has Karthi in the lead role is being released on Pongal day so we have decided to release Paiyya in the month of February.

The film is about a young pair who travels from Bangalore to Mumbai and the problems they encounter during their travel. Karthi travels with the girl Thamanna whom he is very fond of. The villain gang chases them.

Why is the suspense? We shot the car chasing sequences in Mumbai for n12 days. We shot this sequence using 5 cameras. Karthi and Thamanna took great risk while shooting these sequences. The film has 65% of romance and 35% of action.
