At the peak of his career in the late 2000s and early 2010s, Vishnupriyan played a series of lead roles in films such as Unakkaga En Kadhal (2010) and Mye (2012), and supporting roles in the college drama Ninaithale Inikkum (2009) and the action thriller Ayyanar (2010).[3][4][5] He returned to Malayalam cinema in a supporting role in Puthiya Mukham (2009) and Simhasanam (2012) after being encouraged by Prithviraj, who he had befriended during the making of Ninaithale Inikkum.[1][6]
