When Julius turned up as a contestant at “The Voice” Sri Lanka, his blind audition blew away the judges. The judging board consisted of a number of Sri Lankan Veterans in the music industry such as Bathiya and Santhush, Umaria ,Kasun Kalhara and Shashika Nisansala. The judges Bns and Umaria were awestruck by his amazing performance where Julius merged together his beatboxing skills and his amazing voice.

After the audition was telecasted, viewers took up to social media to dig up a few archives. Some of these archives show how Julius himself has been a judge in certain competitions along with other big names in the music industry.
