The Sudeep-directed film got Yethiraj instant recognition and a flood of offers.

His Tamil debut is Thanikattu Raja, starring Arya and directed by Raghavan. Yethiraj plays a cop with negative shades. Yethiraj acted in the Kannada film Mr Mommaga directed by Raghavan. The director was impressed enough to promise him a role in his Tamil film. The call came soon after. The actor has taken the offer seriously. 'I can speak decent Tamil that is enough if you want to speak to someone who knows Tamil in Bengaluru,' he says. But in the last one month he has immersed himself into speaking Tamil like a native.
