Described as a versatile actor by the media, Rampal has received several awards including the National Film Award for Best Supporting Actor and the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in Rock On!!. Rampal made his acting debut in Rajiv Rai's romance film Pyaar Ishq Aur Mohabbat (2001).
