Last month, Ram Charan's father and veteran actor Chiranjeevi tweeted that he tested positive for the virus. However, he later explained that he was COVID-negative and that his initial test result turned out to be positive due to a "faulty PCR-kit." He tweeted: "A group of doctors did three different tests and concluded that I am COVID negative and that the earlier result was due to a faulty RT PCR kit. My heartfelt thanks for the concern, love shown by all of you during this time. Humbled."
Ram Charan made his debut in acting with the 2007 Telugu film Chirutha. The actor is best known for starring in several hits like Magadheera, Racha, Naayak, Yevadu, Dhruva, Rangasthalam and Zanjeer. He has also produced films such as Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy and Khaidi No 150. Ram Charan's next project as an actor is RRR, which is being helmed by Baahubali director SS Rajamouli.
