The young actor debuted in Kollywood through Mani Ratnam's 'Kadal', and has been a busy man ever since light was shone on his acting prowess. Gautam Karthik already has 'Sippai', 'Yennamo Yedho' and 'Vai Raja Vai' in his schedule, but the actor has willingly nodded for one more responsibility.

The latest is a project yet to be titled, and directed by Kala Prabhu of 'Sakkarakatti' fame. The film is to be produced by Thanu, and is touted to be an action comedy. Speaking on the film, Prabhu said "We will start shooting in Chennai, and the tale will be carried to Goa and the exotics of Arunachal Pradesh, where major portions of the film are to be shot. The story has generous dosage of comedy, and will be a good entertainment for the youth. We will go on the floors by the end of this year."
