Is Payya based on Run?

With Payya’s audio released, it’s widely speculated that the movie’s release is just around the corner. And initial reports from people who viewed the movie’s rushes are promising. Also, celebrities who had the opportunity to sneak a look at the movie’s footage vouch for the jet-paced love & action flick, the first in the genre that Lingusamy has directed since Run.

Lingusamy was quoted as saying that Karthi wanted a racy entertainer just like Run and he hence built upon a thread based on the similar genre. Payya is about a road trip the movie’s leads Karthi and Tamannah take and what they encounter during the trip owing to Tamannah’s mysterious past.
