The poster suggests a soft beautiful romantic story, a statement from the makers said. The director believes Vishnu’s role will steal the audience’s heart.

Apart from Gayatri, which is set for a worldwide release on February 9, Vishnu will be seen in a Telugu action-comedy film Acharya America Yatra and a bilingual political thriller titled Voter/Kural 388 in Telugu/Tamil, respectively.
