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 supporting roles in Mapla Singam (2016), an action film starring Vemal and Anjali. 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]
