INTERESTING BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Ravi Varma is a prominent Indian actor renowned for his significant contributions to Telugu cinema, captivating audiences with his dynamic performances across both television and film. Born into a family that would later move to Hyderabad when he was just two years old, Ravi’s formative years were spent in this vibrant city, where he completed his formal education. His artistic journey began early; while still in the third standard, he took his first steps into the world of performing arts by learning Kathak, a classical dance form, while also dedicating nearly eight years to mastering bhangra. During his school years, he developed a keen interest in mime, showcasing his talent through various performances at school events, which further fueled his passion for acting.

When the time came for Ravi to express his ambition to join the film industry, he found unwavering support from his parents, who encouraged him to pursue his dreams but first urged him to complete his education. After fulfilling this requirement, he immersed himself in the professional realm, initially working at Rediff in the USA for two and a half years. This experience, however, did not diminish his desire to act. Instead, it propelled him toward further honing his craft; he subsequently enrolled in a three-month acting course at the prestigious New York Film Academy. This training proved invaluable when he prepared for his debut film, “Vennela,” where he intensely researched the nuances of his character by observing the behavior and mannerisms of Muslim boys at an engineering college.

His talent also transcended regional boundaries when he portrayed Bobby in the Tamil film “Sathya” in 2017. Between 2018 and 2021, he captivated audiences as Nesamani in the web series “Oru Oorla Oru Rajakumari” on Zee5, demonstrating his adaptability to various mediums. His filmography also includes a memorable role as Ajay in the blockbuster Bollywood film “Saaho” in 2019, showcasing his ability to navigate different cinematic landscapes.
