Written by Govind Padman and Mahesh Mithra, it is a remake of their Malayalam film Ee Parakkum Thalika (2001).

The plot took a turn when a girl named Vasanthi (Radha) enters the bus as a nomad, but she was actually Gayathri, the daughter of an influential and politically powerful minister (P. Vasu) in Puducherry.

[citation needed] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote, "‘Sundara Travels’ originally made in Malayalam as ‘ee Parakkum Thaliga’ was scripted and directed by Thaha and was a success in Kerala.

Thaha directs the Tamil version, and probably to go with the so called ‘nativity’ factor, it is comedy that’s a bit too loud for comfort".
