Career

Ramkumar, being a producer's son, was an avid movie buff in his childhood. He was introduced to the film industry by the famous director Peraala in his action film Aavesha (1990), co-starring Shankar Nag, Geetha and Bhavya. He was paired with yet another debutant; Shivaranjini in this film. The film went on to become a success at the box office. This was quickly followed by the epic blockbuster war film Muthina Haara, directed by Rajendra Singh Babu and starring Vishnuvardhan and Suhasini. He played the son role of Vishnuvardhan who gets killed in the war. The film was one of the milestones of success in Kannada cinema.

Following his initial brief roles, Ramkumar came back in 1993 through the film Gejje Naada in a lead role opposite newcomer Shwetha. The film was declared a musical hit with his performance being lauded. This was followed by the devotional biographical film Bhagawan Sri Saibaba, which had an ensemble cast. In 1994, he starred in B. C. Patil's story Poorna Sathya, which failed at the box office. The years 1995 and 1996 saw his highest number of films releasing, of which only Kavya, Thayi Illada Thavaru, Thavarina Thottilu and Gaaya proved to be successful. His other films were completely washouts with back to back failures.

In 1999, he starred in the multi-starrer films Snehaloka and Habba. Both the films were successful. However, the films that followed continued to fail one after the other. Without luck as an actor, he turned towards producing films and with his wife's name he brought out the film Pandavaru in 2006. A multi-starrer with a host of prominent stars and a remake of Hulchul, Pandavaru proved to be an average grosser at the box office.[2]
