Actor Raghu Ram is a famous personality in the TV world. He got a lot of fame from MTV’s show Roadies. Currently, he is busy with Amazon Mini TV’s new web series ‘Jamnapaar’. This series is based on a father-son duo, whose outlook towards life is very different from each other. Both have different desires, one of whom wants to spread his wings and fly toward a better life while the other doesn’t want to be a person of mainstream.

Raghu is talking in connection with the promotion of his upcoming series. During this, he said that his father was a chartered accountant, but he was an artist at heart. Raghu said, when you have to raise three children, you have to be practical. Raghu also has a twin brother, known as Rajiv. Raghu further said that during his upbringing, he was always made to feel special, but when it came to hair, things changed. He said, “When my hair started falling, I used to feel a lot of pressure, insecurity, complexity. I used to wear a cap. I always tried to hide this fact. So, shaving my head was a big deal for me at that time.”

Talking about his confidence, he said, “However, when I stopped trying to look a certain way, I felt a wave of confidence that impresses everyone today. It turned out to be one of the best things that happened to me. Because of this, I got a different identity and a look that helped me a lot later. I gained confidence when I accepted and embraced myself the way I am.”

Raghu was associated with Roadies for 11 years. In the year 2014, he announced that he would no longer be a part of this show. After this, he did some web series and films. Talking about how one can deal with the challenges in a city like Mumbai, Raghu said, “It is very difficult to find a job. For an actor, audition is like a job. People think that if you give an audition, you will get a job. No, giving an audition is your job. Keep auditioning, you will get better and better, your name will start getting discussed and then you will get work. This is not a struggle, it is life. This is work, I enjoy it. If you don’t enjoy your work, then do something else”.
