/ Biography
Founder of RDV Films — Shaping the next era of Indian cinema.
Born in Mhow, Madhya Pradesh, Ragini was a Femina Miss India finalist before being introduced to modelling by Prasad Bidapa and subsequently to cinema. Over fifteen years she has built a cross-industry career spanning Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Hindi films, working alongside leading male actors including Sudeep, Upendra, Shivarajkumar, and Mammootty.
Now, as Founder of RDV GROUP, Ragini brings those two decades of industry relationships, on-set insight, and market knowledge to the producer's chair. Her mandate: develop female-led narratives with commercial scale, produce high-octane action that crosses language barriers, and create regional cinema with pan-India reach.
RDV Films is the production platform through which she shapes the next generation of Indian cinematic IP — acting as catalyst, curator, and commercial architect. Beyond film, Ragini channels her public standing into meaningful community work through her charitable foundation.
My vision for RDV GROUP is to build a production house that champions bold female-led stories and high-octane Indian cinema that travels — regionally, nationally, and globally.
