Following his initial brief roles, Ramkumar came back in 1993 through the film Gejje Naada in a lead role opposite a newcomer Shwetha. The film was declared a musical hit with his performance being lauded. This was followed by a devotional biographical film Bhagawan Sri Saibaba which had an ensemble cast. In 1994, he starred in B. C. Patil's story Poorna Sathya which failed at the box-office. The years 1995 and 1996 saw his maximum number of films releasing of which only Kavya, Thayi Illada Thavaru, Thavarina Thottilu and Gaaya proved to be successful. His other films were completely wash outs with back to back failures.

In 1999, he starred in multi-starrer films such as Snehaloka and Habba. Both the films were successful. However, the films that followed continued to fail one after the other making him the unlucky star. Without luck as an actor, he turned towards producing films and with his wife's name he brought out the film Pandavaru in 2006. A multi-starrer with a host of prominent stars and remake of Hulchul, Pandavaru proved to be an average grosser at the box-office. He is an extremely talentad actor who is genuine and shows that in the movies he has acted. He has a huge fan following.
