[edit] Career
Kalyan Ram started his caerer as an actor with Toli choopulone (2003) produced by Ramoji Rao. His next movie was Abhimanyu (2004) produced by Ashwini Dutt. Starting his film career with two failures did not dampen his spirits.
In 2005 he established his own banner, NTR Arts, under the name of his legendary grandfather NTR and produced Athanokkade introducing Surender Reddy as director. Kalyan Ram startled the entire film industry and the audience alike with his shocking Athanokkade. It was a runaway hit at the box office. His next movie, Asadhyudu (2006), was a disaster. His next ventures Vijayadasami with Samudra Lakshmi Kalyanam with Teja did not worked out well for him. However, Hare Ram under his own production proved him as actor and was well received by critics. In 2009 he starred in Jayeebhava which later settled as a flop. In 2010 he starred in KalyanRam 'Kathi'. Though there was much hype about stealing the title from known director Gunasekhar, he could not steal the audience hearts — a disaster again from his banner.
