After returning to India, he joined as an assistant to Mani Rathnam in directing Aayitha Ezhuthu and Yuva. Mani Rathnam had wanted him to act in Aayitha Ezhuthu but Karthi rejected the offer, thus the role was given to Siddarth Narayan.

His dream was to be a director but when Ameer, well acclaimed director of Raam, approached him to play the hero in his new film Paruthiveeran, Karthi accepted the offer.

He is currently acting in Aayirathil Oruvan directed by Selvaraghavan.
