Ravi Babu

Ravi Babu (Telugu రవి బాబు) is one of the Telugu film industry’s most successful and critically acclaimed directors and producers, with a versatile range of films spanning all genres. He has directed 12 films, produced 5 of them, acted in some of them and written all of them. As an actor, he has starred in over 75 films in varied roles as villain, comedian, comi-villain and garnered wide acclaim for his unique method of acting.

Early life

He is the son of veteran Telugu film actor Chalapathi Rao who is one of the most well-known actors in Telugu films and has acted in over 1200 films in a career span of 48 years. As a versatile actor, he has essayed many roles as a villain, comic villain, character actor.

Ravi Babu is the eldest of three siblings. His primary schooling was at Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan in Chennai and he later studied English Literature at the Presidency College, Chennai, also in Chennai. He graduated with an MBA from the Symbiosis International University, Pune. Ravi could have chosen a high-flying corporate job that would have given him all the perks a fresh MBA from a top university would get, but he gave that up to pursue his dream of film-making. So, he took an off-beat offer of working as a production assistant to ace advertising film-maker Rajiv Menon.
