We have heard someone say that "the truth is, if you discourage an actor you may never find him again. An actor is an animal, extremely fragile. You get a little expression, it is not exactly what you wanted, but it’s alive. It’s something human." Ramanaidu always wanted to be an actor and today after having accomplished major things in life, he is putting in heart and soul for that recognition, to be known as an actor.

Comfortably perched on his chair at his sprawling studio he says, "i have worked in small roles in a few films but this time it's a full length role. My son Suresh is very indifferent to my work before the camera but this time his appreciation of my film 'Hope' made me feel good. The producer turned actor elaborates, "It's about the faulty ways in education system and i play a professor who resides in the same flat as Kalyani's. I help her and her family comes out of grief when Kalyani's sibling commits suicide for not doing well in her exams. The film will be an eye opener, to the government and also to the parents. In my days we would just carry a handful of books to the schools but it pains to see children carrying a sack to study."

Ramanaidu's ambition is to be known as a man who has produced made films in almost all languages in the country. He is close to achieving it. I just need to produce a film in malayalam, marathi, punjabi, gujarati and bhojpuri. These days bhojpuri films are doing well and i'm looking out for a good story. Right now our film Ashvaroodan with Suresh Gopi and Padmapriya is in process. The puja ceremony took place on the 12th and within one month the shooting will be completed. We might release the film on may 30th. The other one is Srikrishna 2006 and Hamari Beti which has Anurag patel, Gopinath Deb, Vishal. The heroine who is an oriya girl is deaf and dumb in real life. I'm just waiting for the first copy."
