He made his debut through ''[[Kurai Ondrum Illai]]'' (2014). Regarding his performance, a critic noted, "Geethan, with his boy-next-door looks, has a charm that makes you relate to him. You empathize with him when he longs to help his friend and yet cannot do so as the latter chooses to give up and feel for him when he breaks up with his sweet heart" whilst another noted, "Debutant Geethan as Krishna has a charming screen presence, essays Krishna neatly, lending the right nuances to the character".<ref>{{Cite web |date=10 October 2014 |title=Kuraiondrumillai Movie Review {3.5/5}: Critic Review of Kuraiondrumillai by The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movie-reviews/kuraiondrumillai/movie-review/44781425.cms |website=[[The Times of India]]}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=12 October 2014 |title=Feel-good Flavour with Freshers as the Lead |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2014/oct/12/feel-good-flavour-with-freshers-as-the-lead-670776.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220809230725/https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/review/2014/oct/12/Feel-good-Flavour-with-Freshers-as-the-Lead-670776.html |archive-date=9 August 2022 |access-date=11 August 2022 |website=[[The New Indian Express]]}}</ref> The film was, however, a box office failure.<ref name="T"/> His next film was the unreleased ''Aakko'', which was noted for the song "Enakenna Yaarum Illaye" by [[Anirudh Ravichander]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/music/anirudh-releases-his-next-teaser/articleshow/45033535.cms|title=Anirudh releases his next teaser|date=13 January 2017|work=The Times of India|access-date=17 October 2025}}</ref><br />
