Prior to his entrance into the film industry, Gopi was a renowned mime actor in Chennai and headed G Mime Studio, a studio which exhibited the art form.

He is the inspiration to the upcoming theatre actors.[2] He had set up the studio in 1994 and had worked to expand the art across Chennai.[3] Gopi made a breakthrough as a film actor after appearing as a rogue in Madras (2014), and he arrived at the bang.
