Raghu Ram Ambadapudi (born 15 April 1973) is an Indian television producer and actor. He was earlier a senior supervising producer at MTV India and the executive producer of reality television shows MTV Roadies and MTV Splitsvilla. He was married to actress Sugandha Garg. His brother is Rajiv Laxman. The brothers launched their own content studio called Monozygotics in 2014.

Ram was born in Machilipatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India. He was born an identical-twin and grew up in Delhi, India, along with his twin brother, Rajiv Laxman. Their father is a chartered accountant and mother a political affairs journalist. They have a younger sister Supriya Nistala, who is married and has a daughter.

The twin brothers studied at the Woodstock School, Landour, Uttarakhand. They later attended the University of Delhi in Delhi. In the first year, both were students of Deshbandhu College, but in the second year, they joined Sri Venkateswara College. In the final year, they joined Osmania University in Hyderabad where they completed their graduation.

Ram was married to actress Sugandha Garg, who has played roles in Hindi films Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, Tere Bin Laden and My Name Is Khan. In 2016, they announced their separation, after being married for almost a decade.

Ram started his career at MTV India supervising shows including MTV Love Line with VJs Malaika Arora Khan and Cyrus Broacha, and also spearheaded MTV Select and the first few seasons of MTV Super Select with VJ Nikhil Chinapa. His idea of MTV Roadies was accepted as an experimental project by MTV in 2000. The show was tentatively titled MTV: Find The Road, and was initially met with skepticism by the senior producers of the channel. The show later started to gain popularity from its second season onwards and went on to become the longest running reality show on Indian television. Ram was later appointed the senior supervising producer of MTV India and the executive producer of Roadies as well as MTV Splitsvilla, another reality show which he had launched in 2008.
