Vishnu is an Indian actor who has worked on Tamil films and television series. After making a breakthrough as an actor through his role in Office (2013), he has worked on films including Mapla Singam (2016) and Ivan Yarendru Therikiratha (2017).[1]
Career
As a part of his post-graduate degree, Vishnu approached Pradeep Milroy Peter, the programming head of STAR Vijay, for a presentation regarding TRPs. Peter was impressed with Vishnu and hired him to the channel as a programme producer, from which Vishnu slowly got into acting roles. 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]
