Rahul Ramakrishna Announces Retirement From Acting, Says ‘I Will Not Do Films Anymore'

One of the most revered actors in Tollywood, Rahul Ramakrishna has announced his retirement from acting. The 31-year-old star made the announcement through Twitter. He wrote, "2022 is my last. I will not do films anymore. Not that I care, nor should anybody care." Though he hasn't mentioned the reason behind his decision in his tweet, the announcement surely has left many shell-shocked.

Rahul started off his acting career with the 2014 short film Sainma. Later, he made his Tollywood debut with Jayammu Nischayammu Raa starring Srinivasa Reddy and Poorna, which released in 2016. In 2017, he got his big break, all thanks to Vijay Deverakonda-Shalini Pandey-starrer Arjun Reddy.
