It has been nearly two years since Ram was seen on the silver screen but the actor is keen on compensating the long absence with three releases this year. While his immediate release would be Gopichand Malineni’s ‘Pandago Chesko’ which is expected to release this month, his other films – ‘Shivam’ and ‘Hari Katha’ – are also expected to open in cinemas this year.

Family drama ‘Hari Katha’, a directorial venture of Kishore Tirupathi, is almost 40 per cent over while ‘Shivam’, an actioner, too is progressing at a brisk note in Hyderabad.

Since both the projects are being produced by his uncle Sravanthi Ravi Kishore, there’s no chance for them to be belated at any cost, we hear. ‘Hari Katha’ will be his second release this year – most probably in September – followed by ‘Shivam’ which is likely  to release either in October or November.
