Biography

Warut Woratam, professionally recognized by his stage name Oh, was a truly remarkable and multifaceted individual who made a significant impact within the Thai entertainment industry, showcasing his remarkable versatility and talent as a skilled film and television actor, a charismatic host, and a stunning model.

Warut's career-defining moment arrived in 1988 with his portrayal of Kobori, an Imperial Japanese soldier and protagonist in the film "Khu Kam". This pivotal role not only showcased his impressive acting abilities but also earned him the esteemed Phra Surasawadi Award, also known as the Golden Doll Award, for the most promising male actor of the time. This recognition marked the beginning of a long and illustrious career in the entertainment industry, as Warut went on to star in numerous films and television dramas, consistently demonstrating his talent and versatility as a performer.

Maethanee "Nino" Buranasiri, a close friend and fellow actor, joined forces with Warut to co-host the widely popular television program "Ono Show", a testament to their enduring camaraderie and shared passion for the entertainment industry.

Warut's illustrious career has been punctuated by numerous accolades, with a standout achievement being the 1992 Golden Television Award for best actor in the drama "Nai Fun", a triumph that showcased his exceptional talent and dedication to his craft.

Warut's professional trajectory underwent a significant reversal, precipitating a period of personal turmoil and introspection. He found himself grappling with a multitude of self-destructive tendencies, including a pronounced reliance on cigarettes and an excessive consumption of alcohol. This downward spiral was marked by a distinct lack of self-regulation, as he struggled to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

Warut's life was marked by a profound sense of tragedy, as his time on this earth was brutally cut short on the eleventh day of September, two thousand eighteen. This devastating event transpired at his residence in the city of Chiang Mai, where he had fallen into an unconscious state.

As a result of this unforeseen turn of events, Warut was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was admitted to the intensive care unit for a period of two consecutive nights. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of medical professionals to save his life, Warut ultimately succumbed to his injuries, leaving behind an indelible legacy that will forever be etched in the memories of those who loved him.
