→Trivia
- The film's title 'Parris Jayaraj' is a playful nod to the popular gaana song 'Parris Jeyaraj' by singer Dhibu Ninan Thomas.
- Director Johnson K. previously worked as an associate director for several big Tamil films before making his directorial debut with this movie.
- The movie was shot in just 25 days, mostly in and around Chennai, to keep the production budget low.
- Actor Kaali Venkat, known for comic roles, was initially considered for a different part before being cast as the protagonist's friend.
- A key plot twist involves a real-world legal issue about parental identity, which is rare for a Tamil comedy-romance film.
- The film's soundtrack uses gaana music, a Chennai street music style, to reflect the main character's profession and background.
- Despite its 2021 release, the movie had a very limited theatrical run due to COVID-19 restrictions and later gained attention on streaming platforms.
