→Trivia
- The film's title 'Maya Bazaar' shares its name with a legendary 1957 Telugu fantasy film, but the stories are completely unrelated.
- Director Deepban M. Vignesh previously worked as an assistant director on the popular Tamil series 'Kana Kaanum Kaalangal'.
- The movie was shot extensively in and around Chennai, including at the popular tourist spot Muttukadu, to capture a breezy coastal vibe.
- Actor Sathyaraj, known for his powerful roles, plays a key comedic character, marking a shift from his usual intense performances.
- The film's music was composed by Justin Prabhakaran, who is also known for his work in the hit film '96'.
- The body-swap comedy concept was promoted as a fresh attempt in Tamil cinema, which has rarely explored this genre in a family setting.
- Despite being a comedy, the film incorporates subtle themes about understanding perspectives, central to the body-swap plot.
