Ram Kapoor who is best known for his role as Mr Walia in Kasamh Se and as Ram in Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was the talk of the town recently when before and after pictures of himself after losing oodles of weight did rounds on the internet. The actor is one of the popular and versatile actors who dabbled in various mediums in his 20-year career. And during an interview with Hindustan Times, he claimed that he is happy and content with how his journey has been till now. He said, "There aren’t too many challenges. Life is fun, and fortunately, work has been coming to me regularly from the last 20 years. Now, I can be picky and choosy about what I want to do. If I want to take a year off, I can do that without any fear."

He also opened up on how aspiring actors hardly get any projects and how they mostly spend their life giving auditions. He said, "It’s extremely tough (in today's time), especially for aspiring actors to get work. Apparently, about 90 percent of them don’t have any work. They spend their whole life giving auditions. I think a mere two percent manage to make a successful career."

He also shared his struggles during the initial days. He revealed that during the initial five to eight years of his career he was just one more name in thousands. He said how there were times when he didn't have any work for six months and had enough money. But he made sure to make it big.
