YSRCP to move HC if Roja denied Assembly entry

Completing 20 years in Telugu cinema, Ram Pothineni’s journey stands as more than just a milestone—it is a testament to his adaptability, consistency and enduring appeal in an ever-evolving industry.

Since making his debut with Devadas in 2006, Ram has effortlessly slipped into a wide range of roles, winning audiences with his infectious energy, natural charm and sincere performances. Over the last two decades, he has explored almost every shade of commercial cinema, carving a space that few of his contemporaries have managed.

He endeared himself to family audiences as the lovable boy-next-door in films like Ready, Nenu Shailaja and Hello Guru Prema Kosame. At the same time, he showcased his flair for high-octane entertainers with Kandireega, Maska and Pandaga Chesko. Movies such as Jagadam, Endukante Premanta and Andhra King Taluka went on to become cult favourites, cementing his strong connect with the youth.

What truly sets Ram apart is his willingness to reinvent himself. His rugged, massy transformation in iSmart Shankar came as a major surprise, while Skanda revealed a more intense and aggressive side of his acting prowess.

Even during quieter phases, Ram’s films have consistently registered strong openings, backed by a loyal fan base, solid family support and his reliable screen presence. Off screen, he is known for staying grounded and controversy-free, adding to his positive image.

With chart-topping music, electrifying dance numbers and impressive reach through Hindi satellite and digital platforms, Ram’s popularity has extended well beyond the Telugu states.

As he celebrates 20 remarkable years, Ram Pothineni stands tall as one of Telugu cinema’s complete performers—an actor who continues to evolve, entertain across genres and remain a favourite among both family audiences and the youth.
