Passionate acting is innate; it does not end when the curtains roll out. Tollywood’s Rao Ramesh is among the actors who have developed their inborn talent in theaters. Though he started in photography, Ramesh is a celebrated actor in Telugu movies. It is hard to stream a Telugu movie and fail to find him featured in a supporting role in recent productions, besides his advanced age. He stepped up to own his talent when his father died, and his mother pushed him to try his hand in what used to be his dad’s career.
Since then, Telugu movies have grown to know Ramesh as a household name. His first film was in 2002. Even though the 50-year-old actor had appeared in several movies, his breakthrough came in 2008 in his film, Gamyam where he was accorded a critical response. Gamyam is rated among one of his brilliant performances.
