Nandu made his lead debut with the thriller film Photo (2006) starring Muktha and Anjali under the stage name of Anand.[1] After playing a negative role in Sukumar's 100% Love, he went on to play the lead roles in several films notably including Ram Gopal Varma's 365 Days (2015) with Anaika Soti.[2] That same year, he played the lead role in Best Actors. Regarding his performance, a critic from The Times of India wrote, "Nandu delivered a decent performance, aptly displaying emotions. His performance has a comfort level that makes his acting seem natural".[3] After starring in several low-budget films, Nandu starred in Sawaari in 2020. The film released to positive reviews with a critic noting that "Nandu comes out of his comfort zone and steals the show right from the get-go".[4]
