Vishnu made his debut as an actor in films through supporting roles in Mapla Singam (2016), an action film starring Vimal 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.
