Ram, who has been around for many years, says he is happy space now for at.” First, I was doing repetitive TV roles( Kasamh Se,  Bade Achhe Lagte Hain) because I had to make money and care for my family; now I do parts that impress me. I have become very picky, and I thank my luck for making me reach such a safe position.”

Over the year, he has done films like Student of  The  Year, Agent Vinod and Golmaal Returns.

Ram does not consider the current glut in Bollywood hits as dangerous;” this is just a short-term phase as we transition from theatrical to digital post-lockdown.” ends he
