Following conversations with an associate, director Priyadarshan, Singh opted to begin work as a producer in Tamil cinema, and debuted with 12B (2001). He produced the film under the studio, Film Works.[2] Debutante Shaam was signed for the lead role after meeting with the director, Jeeva and with him.[3][4] After the release of 12B, Singh expressed interest in dubbing the film in Telugu.[5] The promotions of 12B garnered acclaim with Shaam gaining film offers before the film's release although the film was a box office failure.[6] After this, Singh went on to work with Shaam and music director Harris Jayaraj again for Priyadarshan's Lesa Lesa (2003). The film was a remake of the successful Malayalam film Summer in Bethlehem (1998).[7][8] To concentrate on the venture, Singh put the film Acham Thavir starring Madhavan and Jyothika on hold.[9][10] To avoid piracy, he released the soundtrack of Lesa Lesa at a cheap rate.[11][12][13]
