Namrata Shirodkar discusses her decision to end her acting career after marrying Mahesh Babu

Namrata Shirodkar and Mahesh Babu are one of the most beautiful celebrity couples in the world. Before marrying Mahesh Babu, Namrata Shirodkar won the prestigious Miss India title, after which she appeared in a number of films like 'Kachche Dhaage', 'Vaastav', 'LOC: Kargil', and 'Bride and Prejudice'. However, after marrying Mahesh Babu in 2005, she retired from modelling and acting. Namrata has now spoken up about her decision to choose marriage above her acting career.

Namrata recently talked about what caused her to make this decision in a recent interview. Namrata stated that nothing was planned and that everything happened naturally "I was a bit lazy in many ways and for me, nothing was planned like I always said. Whatever has happened has organically happened. I could say the choices I have made are right and I'm happy with the choices I have made."

Adding to that, Namrata further emphasised that the reason she had got into acting was to break free from the tedious rut of modelling. But getting to know Mahesh Babu and later embracing motherhood had changed her entire world.


She stated, “So I was a bit lazy… even when I got into acting, it was because I was bored of modelling. I got into acting which was the obvious next step and by the time I really enjoyed my work and thought seriously about my craft, I met Mahesh and we got married so if I had taken my work seriously, my life would have been very different from what it is now… so I’m not complaining but my happiest moment was when I and Mahesh decided that we should get married and my whole world changed after that and the whole experience of being married is a great experience. The whole phase of motherhood is a great experience so I don’t think I would exchange or change that for anything. It is not worth it."

Namrata Shirodkar and Mahesh Babu have two children, a son, Gautam, and a daughter, Sitara. Namrata may not be seen in front of the camera, but the diva manages all of her husband Mahesh Babu's company and interests.
