Sandalwood
superstar
Yash's
bodyguard
Ram
played
the
role
of
Garuda
in
KGF:
Chapter
1.
The
bodyguard-actor
is
now
flooded
with
lots
of
movie
offers
thanks
to
the
massive
success
of
the
movie.
The
Prashanth
Neel
directed
KGF:
Chapter
1
was
a
pan-India
blockbuster
that
catapulted
Yash
to
national
fame
and
recognition.
The
actor
had
cast
his
personal
bodyguard
as
the
principal
antagonist
of
the
action
extravaganza.
For
the
uninitiated,
prior
to
KGF,
bodyguard
Ram
had
nothing
to
do
with
acting.
He
was
associated
with
the
Rocking
star
for
the
longest
time
as
his
driver
cum
bodyguard.
But
after
having
served
Yash
for
over
12
years,
Ram
decided
to
leave
his
construction
business
to
become
a
full-time
actor.
Even
though
Ram
nurtured
the
acting
dream,
it
did
not
happen
until
he
was
spotted
by
the
KGF
makers
during
the
script
discussions
of
the
movie.
On
being
selected
by
Prashanth
Neel
for
the
role,
Ram
undertook
acting
workshops
for
about
a
year
whilst
sweating
it
out
in
the
gym
to
get
in
shape
for
the
role.
The
massive
success
of
the
Sandalwood
biggie
prompted
him
to
add
his
character
name
as
his
prefix
to
his
own
name.
As
of
now,
Garuda
Ram
is
not
just
flooded
with
Kannada
offers,
but
from
other
south
industries.
The
actor
has
now
signed
Karthi's
Sultan.
He
will
be
also
be
seen
in
another
negative
role
in
Jayam
Ravi
and
Taapsee
Pannu
starrer
yet-untitled
project.
He
will
also
be
making
his
Telugu
debut
in
a
film
starring
Raj
Tarun.
