Girish was signed in the Bollywood romance film Ramaiya Vastavaiya, directed by Prabhu Deva and produced by his father Kumar S. Taurani. Prabhu Deva trained Girish for three and half years before filming. He made Girish perform some scenes and dance numbers. Prabhu noticed that Girish had an X-factor, but just needs to polish those rough edges, to make him more spontaneous. For it, he assigned few choreographers to train Girish according to the format of dances required in the film. Girish was even over-weighed, so he had to undergo fitness regime. In which, he developed six pack abs just within three weeks.

International surfing expert Christopher Bryan from Hawaii, USA was given the charge of the underwater sequences with Girish, which were shot in Australia. Also, the romantic track of the film, 'Jeene Laga Hoon' sang by Atif Aslam, was perceived well by audience.
