 In the 2010s, Vaiyapuri was cast in less films as the Tamil film industry generally moved away from including separate comedy tracks in films.He has since worked on more low-budget films in supporting roles, while continuing to regularly collaborate in films starring Kamal Haasan such as "Uttama Villain" (2015) and "Papanasam" (2015).In 2017, Vaiyapuri received media attention for taking part in the reality television show "Bigg Boss" hosted by Kamal Haasan.
