Ram Charan made his acting debut as a star kid with director Puri Jagannadh's action film Chirutha (2007), for which he won the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut – South

It was with this film he earned the soubriquet of 'Mega Powerstar' -- a combination of Megastar, which his father Chiranjeevi is being called, and Powerstar, a title given to his uncle Pawan Kalyan

He catapulted to stardom with his second film Magadheera (2009), which stands as one of the highest-grossing Telugu films of all-time

Directed by SS Rajamouli, the fantasy action film also stars Kajal Aggarwal and Srihari in other prominent roles

Charan has won several accolades for his performance as a valiant warrior, Kala Bhairava, including the Filmfare Award for Best Actor (Telugu)

Considered to be an underrated work of Ram Charan, Orange (2010) remains to be one of the quirky romantic entertainers of Telugu cinema. He played Ram, a graffiti artist, who doesn't believe in love

After a string of commercial entertainers, Charan made his Bollywood debut with the Telugu-Hindi bilingual Zanjeer (2013)

He also made his debut as a playback singer with the cop-drama directed by Apoorva Lakhia. He has sung the song 'Mumbai Ke Hero' along with Jaspreet and Roshni Baptist in Telugu

Ram Charan has performed all his stunts on his own in his first-ever remake Dhruva (2016). He has taken to a vegetarian diet and has exercised rigorously to play the role of an IPS officer

He produced Khaidi No.150 and Syeraa Narasimha Reddy, both featuring his father in the lead role. He is also an entrepreneur and a philanthropist

Charan has added another feather in his hat by launching his own production house -- 'Konidela Productions' in 2016

Ram Charan has delivered his career-best performance in Sukumar's rustic revenge drama Rangasthalam (2018)

He played the quirky 'sound engineer' Chitti Babu, a partially hearing impaired naive youngster with a blithe attitude. His performance has left the audience awed

The film has become the third highest-grossing Telugu films of all-time. He won the Filmfare Award for Best Actor (Telugu) and missed the National award by a whisker

Charan has undergone a complete physical transformation for Vinaya Vidheya Rama (VVR), which required him to fast for 12 hours and stay away from dairy, alcohol and red meat as well for three weeks

The blockbuster director-actor combination of Rajamouli and Ram Charan have joined hands for Roudram Ranam Rudhiram (RRR). The period action film will see him reprising young Alluri Seetaramaraju

Made on a budget of Rs 350 crore, RRR also has Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt in crucial roles. The film is slated for release on January 8, 2021, in Telugu and other regional and international languages.

After sharing screen space in films like Magadheera, Bruce Lee and Khaidi No. 150, he is gearing up to play a crucial cameo in his father Chiranjeevi's upcoming socio-political entertainer Acharya
