Custom validation in grails not working

I have a simple code for custom validation in grails but don't know why its not working ???

I have a domain class Person with 2 fields nationality and other .The condition goes like if the user selects nationality as others which is an inList , then the other field is made mandatory and if user skips this field grails errors message should be raised .

nationality(blank:false,nullable:false,inList:["Indian", "Other"])
other(blank:true,nullable:true,validator:{val,obj ->
    if(obj.nationality!="Indian" && !val){println "values"+val+"nationality"+obj.nationality
    return ['requiredfield'] 
    }

I have also mapped the name of error in message.properties file as mentioned below

person.nationality.requiredfield=Please mention your nationality.

The output on console is values null nationality Others

Have you tried to provide a fully-qualified name in messages.properties?

So something like:

com.domain.Person.other.requiredfield = Please mention you nationality

You are placing error message at wrong place:

do this :

person.other.requiredfield = Please mention your nationality.

Note the difference in error code i.e replace "nationality" with "other".
