Career

He made his breakthrough as an actor with his role as Vishnuvardhan in the television series, Office, co-starring Karthik and Shruthi Raj.[2] Vishnu made his debut as an actor in films through a supporting role in Mapla Singam (2016), an action film starring Vemal and Anjali in the lead roles. His first film as the lead actor, Ivan Yarendru Therikiratha (2017), had a delayed release and failed to garner attention at the box office as a result of other high-profile releases.[3] The film was a comedy about a man who was born on Valentine's Day finding it difficult to get a lover, and saw him appear alongside actresses Ishaara Nair and Varsha Bollamma.[4][5]

His forthcoming releases are Kalari alongside actor Kreshna and Sivappu Seval, in both of which he portrays negative roles.[6]
