[11] Dassani made his feature film debut with Vasan Bala's action-comedy Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota opposite Radhika Madan.

[14] Pradeep Menon of Firstpost said "he occupies the screen well" and noted that "his look suits the character of a guy who has not had enough meaningful interactions with the real world".

[15] Raja Sen of Hindustan Times wrote, "Dassani is perfect as Surya, making an impressively limber debut with a stoic curiosity — with the blankness appropriate for someone who doesn’t know physical pain.

Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com noted, "Abhimanyu is just the man to play Sundaram embodying what a sincere heart and heartfelt apology cannot achieve.

[25] Dassani will next star in the comedy-drama Aankh Micholi with an ensemble cast alongside Mrunal Thakur[26] and in the comedy Nausikhiye with Amol Parashar and Shreya Dhanwanthary.
