Career[]

Pinnishetty made his debut in 2006 with the Teja-directed Oka V Chitram.[7] He later appeared in the Tamil film Mirugam (2007). In 2009, he starred in the supernatural thriller Eeram. In 2010, he had two releases, Ayyanar and Aadu Puli, which were commercial films and were average grossers, building his commercial value well despite the negative reviews.[8]

He has been portrayed in negative roles for high-budget film, Kochadaiyaan and the successful film, Sarrainodu, for which he got critical acclaim, with one reviewer commenting that Aadhi’s screen presence elevates the film. [9]

In 2017, he starred in the thriller Maragadha Naanayam, which turned out to be a surprise box office success. The same year he starred in the Telugu romantic-drama film Ninnu Kori, alongside Nani. His portrayal as Arun in the latter was well reviewed by one reviewer.[10]
