A biography for Namrata Shirodkarhasn’t been written yet.
“Mahesh has no time to do anything apart from shooting for his films. And any free time he has is family time. He doesn't even step out to meet friends.”
“I have a life beyond the camera. I like to travel. I need a breather between movies. And I don't think I can do that if I work on five films at the same time.”
“When Mahesh is not around for weeks together, I have to take care of everything - kids, home. But the fact that I am able to survive and not feel alone is very challenging. It's about a healthy companionship and being true to each other.”
“Mahesh and I are very real, simple people.”
“Mahesh is a big star, but he doesn't like to flash his money.”
“Women complain about not having enough 'me time.' All it requires is a little planning. Once you plan, organise, and prioritise your life, things fall in place.”
“Every relationship has its lows and highs, but how you deal with it is important. There is nothing wrong with argument, but if I am wrong, I always say sorry, and same with Mahesh.”
“I am making a conscious effort to ensure that my acting potential gets tapped in every project I do.”
“Mahesh is not campaigning for any political party. Nor does he intend to contest any elections or pursue any kind of political ambitions.”
“It's easy to be loud, outspoken, and play to the gallery. It's difficult to underplay one's self.”
“I don't have even a moment of regret for leaving my career behind.”
“I simply don't want to enter the rat race. I like doing movies because I like acting and not because I want to reach the top.”
“I believe when two people are in the same profession, they understand each other better.”
“Love is very subjective.”
“I was never career-oriented, not in the way other heroines are. Of course, I took my work seriously. But I never solicited work and never sought fame or money.”
“People believe Mahesh does what I ask him to. That's not true. He may look shy and gentle, but he knows his mind.”
“I believe good music heals souls.”
“Mahesh lays down most of the rules. Even when I was dating him for four years prior to our marriage, he didn't want our relationship to be out in the open.”
“My husband respects what Naidu has done for the state, but the progress of both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana is a matter of great pride for him. Just because he is seen with Naidu, it doesn't make him a political figure.”
“Most of my closest friends have come to visit me in Hyderabad. So I feel I'm always linked with Mumbai.”
