But did you ever wonder how she might have saved her husband's number in her phone?
How is Ram Charan's number saved in Upasana's phone?
In a conversation with the YouTube channel, Curly Tales, Upasana was asked how she had saved Ram's number in her phone. In response, the businesswoman replied, 'I have it saved as Ram Charan 200, because that is the number of times he has changed his number.'
Continuing the conversation, Upasana was asked which of Ram's movies she considers her personal favorite. The star wife revealed that she loves all his films, especially since she gets to witness firsthand the efforts he puts into each project.
She highlighted, 'I love all of his movies, because I know the amount of hard work that goes behind them. Now, I sound holier than thou, so let me say… I like RRR; he put in a lot of effort in RRR, Magadheera, and Rangasthalam. But I love Nayak, that was the first movie set I went to after I got married.'
Upasana's unforgettable wedding moment
For those unaware, Upasana Konidela is the Vice-Chairperson of Apollo Charity. She is the daughter of Shobana Kamineni and the granddaughter of Dr Prathap C. Reddy.
Upasana tied the wedding knot to Ram Charan in December 2011. Reflecting on her wedding day, the leading entrepreneur recalled an unforgettable moment.
In her own words, 'I was so overwhelmed and nervous on that day, but the sweetest thing was how everyone started chanting as I walked. Another moment I can't forget is, the security didn't let me in at my own wedding. I had to put my car window down and tell them who I was.'
Ram Charan's work front
Ram Charan is next set to appear in the lead role for Peddi, directed by Buchi Babu Sana. The sports action drama is set against the backdrop of a village-based cricketing tournament.

Sreeleela sets sights on pan-India stardom
Sreeleela is on a roll. Having made a name for herself in South Indian cinema, she is now eyeing pan-India stardom. The actress began her career with the Kannada film Kiss. She then went on to star in hits like By Two Love (Kannada), and Dhamaka, Guntur Kaaram, and the National Award-winning Bhagavanth Kesari (Telugu). Now, she has another Telugu film in the pipeline; she's also stepping into Tamil and Hindi cinema, with projects that include a Bollywood film alongside Kartik Aaryan and her Tamil debut, Parasakthi, opposite Sivakarthikeyan. These roles represent exciting new chapters for the actress, especially the latter, where she says audiences will 'get to see a new side of me.' Excerpts: 'AS AN ARTISTE, I LIKE CHANGING GEARS; IT KEEPS ME ON MY TOES' Reflecting on the nuances of working across different film industries, Sreeleela says, 'Every language has its own streak, its own flair. What matters most is understanding what the film demands and what the audience expects. Commercial cinema has its own frequency; Hindi cinema is obviously very different from what I've done. But I like changing gears like that. It keeps me on my toes.' 'ACTING TO ME, IS LIVING THE CHARACTER' She emphasises the importance of authenticity in her acting, and says, 'I feel like the moment we start acting instead of living the character, it's not authentic anymore. Especially in Hindi cinema, the scripts I've heard are a little more real, a little more my age, very close to my character. In the past, I've played many characters that weren't completely like me — I tapped into different roles. But these last couple of films feel like me, like a plain me, like how I would really react. I'm excited to bring my authentic self to every screen no matter what language.' 'I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO PLAYING ROLES THAT FEEL GENUINE' Talking about the kinds of stories that inspire her both on and off screen, Sreeleela says, 'I've always been a sucker for love stories and romcoms. Now I'm in my early 20s, and that's the vibe I'm in. Core emotions like love stay the same; what changes is how they're expressed in cinema. I want to be part of stories that are true to my age and feelings. Today, we are also seeing a rise in female-led films. I love seeing women tap into those strong, inspiring stories, and I hope to portray such roles myself. ' I love entertaining, and being able to do it on a wider canvas only makes me happier Sreeleela

Titled 'Coolie' the film releasing on August 14, also starring Nagarjuna Akkineni, Soubin Shahir, Aamir Khan, Shruti Haasan is clashing with Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR 's 'War 2'. This is one of the biggest clashes one has ever seen and there have been many clashes around Independence day. At the moment, it looks like 'Coolie' is dominating over 'War 2' when it comes to the advance ticket sales. But once the films releases, word of mouth will play a huge role in how both he films sustain in India and worldwide. 'Coolie' which is directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj has already made Rs 100 crore gross worldwide in the advance ticket sales which is huge. With this, it has smashed the record of Ram Charan's 'Game Changer' and become the biggest opening for an Indian movie through advance booking, according to Sacnilk. This Ram Charan starrer had made Rs 80 crore in advance ticket sales from worldwide gross. Meanwhile, when it comes to Tamil movies, the total first day number of Thalapathy Vijay's 'Leo' was Rs 143 crore. 'Coolie' has already collected Rs 100 crore in advance sales. The numbers coming from the current bookings on August 14 may be even higher. With that, the film may eventually shatter that record of Day 1 collection of 'Leo' and become the highest grossing first day Tamil movie. On the other hand, 'War 2' has earned Rs 16 crore gross so far when it comes to the advance ticket sales and thus, it's far behind 'Coolie' at the moment, but the film may eventually pick up with spot bookings. A lot will depend on word of mouth. But it may perform well in the Telugu states with JR NTR's presence who is a big star there. Though, even in the Telugu states, Rajinikanth's 'Coolie' may serve a huge competition.
