→Trivia
- The film's title 'Mayabazar' is a nod to a classic 1957 Telugu fantasy film, but this 1995 version is a completely different horror-comedy story.
- Actor Kothandam Ramaiah, who directed the film, is better known as a popular comedian in Tamil cinema from the 1960s onwards.
- The movie features a dual role for actress Roja, playing both the murdered heroine Suji and the fake exorcist Mayamma.
- This was one of the early Tamil films to blend horror and comedy genres, coming before the trend became more popular in the 2000s.
- The soundtrack was composed by Deva, who was known for creating catchy folk and dance numbers during this period in Tamil cinema.
- Despite its dramatic plot, the film is primarily remembered as a comedy due to the scenes involving the fake exorcist character.
- The film's release coincided with a wave of Tamil films exploring ghost themes, but it stood out for its focus on revenge from a female spirit.
