My MBA degree helped me in Cinema

Actor Vishnu Vishnu is known to be extremely "choosy" about his films. Many might know that before becoming an actor, Vishnu was a cricketer. A injury on the field became a major setback in his career which made him delve into his childhood passion of becoming an actor. In his recent interview with Cricketer Ashwin, actor Vishnu has stated that his MBA degree played a huge part in shaping his career. He had specialised Brand Management which formed basis of which he selected scripts. Vishnu realised that the audience liked him playing unconventional roles which made him set a trajectory as a relatable star.

True to his testament, his first film, Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu became an iconic hit of the newbie star. Being "picky" is a double edged sword. The audience do view them as serious and respectable actors. However, erratic frequency on the silver screen, can mess with the memory of movie buffs since Kollywood has been steadily witnessing a talent rise in the last 5 years.

Vishnu Vishal stood by his decision which led him to becoming a Romeo Photographer of the 80s' in Mundaasupatti and a sincere cop in Ratsasan. Vishnu Vishal spills some more beans about the tough decisions that made Ratsasan, the biggest hit of 2018. Though the movie revolves around a serial killer on loose, violence was never shown anywhere in the movie. Vishnu Vishal and the film makers wanted the women audience to feel comfortable while watching the movie as the plot also targets children and safety. Crime thrillers are always gets the critics' praise but fail to fill the coffers. This decision was vital in making the movie a blockbuster.

When Ratsasan was screened to a few select audience in a preview show before the official release, Sirector Ram Kumar was shocked to find women appreciating the movie. Ratsasan team also created a buzz after the release with the "Villain Unveil". The gruesome murderer Christopher was played by Saravanan, a debut artist who became an overnight star after the success of Ratsasan. We believe Vishnu Vishal had a role to play in this PR exercise!

Vishnu Vishal is currently working on his next film, FIR, as a producer and actor.
