More than Mahesh Babu’s wife Namrata Shirodkar’s journey of grace and power

Namrata's entry into the limelight was by design, and not by accident - she comes from a family that was very much in cinema. Her grandmother, Meenakshi Shirodkar, was considered a game-changer when she broke away and donned a swimsuit in a Marathi film in 1938 - which was deemed scandalous. Her sister, Shilpa Shirodkar, successfully made her way into Bollywood, meaning Namrata is the third generation of false and scrupulous women in a family.
