Tollywood's Super Star, Ram Charan, has long been known for his opulent lifestyle in Hyderabad, reflecting his immense success and status in the film industry. His extravagant possessions, particularly his collection of high-end timepieces, have always been a treat for his fans. However, in recent times, the actor seems to have taken a more modest approach when it comes to his choice of watches, surprising many.

Despite owning an impressive array of pricey timepieces ranging from Rs 1 lakh to Rs 40 lakh, Ram Charan has decided to stop acquiring new watches altogether. Instead, he has expressed his delight in wearing a vintage stainless steel Casio watch, which is relatively affordable, costing between Rs 5,000 and Rs 10,000. This simple digital watch holds a special place in his heart because he acquired it during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Interestingly, Ram Charan is not the only South Indian actor to have taken a liking to Casio watches. Even Allu Arjun, who recently attended the success meet of the movie "Baby," was spotted sporting a Casio watch with a price tag of around Rs 8,000.

While Ram Charan's preference for an ordinary watch may have surprised some, he is not alone among his fellow actors in his passion for high-end timepieces. Other prominent names in the South Indian film industry, including Allu Arjun, Megastar Chiranjeevi, Jr NTR, Venkatesh, and Naga Chaitanya, boast remarkable collections featuring prestigious brands like Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Richard Mille, and Patek Philippe. These watches range in price from 10 lakhs to a staggering 1.5 crores, showcasing their desire to flaunt these exquisite items.

Amidst his luxurious lifestyle and watch collection, Ram Charan is currently on paternity leave and is set to begin filming his upcoming movie, "Game Changer," in the near future. Despite his success and status, the actor's choice to wear a humble Casio watch speaks volumes about his values and the sentimental significance of the timepiece he acquired during the challenging period of the pandemic.
