He is obsessed with the career option of becoming an actor with a profound commitment and zeal. His strenuous efforts, hard work … almost 18 hours a day, and the passion for acting resulted into his being identified by renowned director and producer Mr. Y.V.S Chowdary, a perfectionist to the core, for making his film Devadasu. Ram grabbed the opportunity provided to him and continued his commitment, sincerity and dedication in performing the lead role of the film Devadasu.
RAM, the promising young star had attained glory with his maiden film in telugu 'DEVADASU'. The telugu film industry suddenly found a young and a promising actor with extreme ease at dancing skills and also the power to portray action scenes too. He is known to be the 'YOUNGEST HERO OF THE SOUTH'. Ram made his debut in 2006 with Devadasu and the film went on to become a blockbuster, running for 175 days in over a dozen centers. His second film, Jagadam was directed by Sukumar. Though it did not do well at the box office, it received critical acclaim. He then appeared in Ready alongside Genelia D'Souza directed by Srinu Vaitla with the film becoming a huge success, prompting remakes into other Indian languages and catapulting him to the big league. In 2009, he had two releases, Maska and Ganesh Just Ganesh, the latter was not successful at the box office. Maska had one of the biggest openings at the time, collecting over INR2.5 crores on the opening day and recovering its investment within the first week. In 2010, Ram had only one release, Rama Rama Krishna Krishna, produced by Dil Raju and directed by Srivaas. Ram's next film Kandireega was a big blockbuster of 2011 and Ram proved to be the man of the masses along with his lover boy image. His next latest release was Endhukante Premanta with Tamannaah, directed by Karunakaran and produced by Sravanthi Ravi Kishore. The movie was shot in the beautiful lavish locales with a huge budget but it turned out to be an average grosser.

The movie was released on February 1, 2013 was sold for a record price in Ram's career despite the result of his previous film. This film garnered a superb opening but couldn't live up to its hype.
