For most children, landing a job at the age of 12 would seem like a fantasy. But for Sitara Ghattamaneni, daughter of renowned actress Namrata Shirodkar and Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu, that dream became a reality, along with an extraordinary first salary of Rs 1 crore. Even more inspiring is that Sitara chose to donate the entire sum to charity.<\/p>\n

Namrata Shirodkar, known to Malayali audiences for her role opposite Mammootty in her debut Malayalam film Ezhupunna Tharakan<\/em> (1999), retired from acting to focus on her family. Married to Mahesh Babu since February 2005, the couple has two children, Gautham, born in 2006, and Sitara, born in 2012.<\/p>\n

In 2023, Sitara was chosen as the brand ambassador for a leading jewellery brand. Her promotional shoot, featured on a billboard in Times Square, New York, USA, earned her Rs 1 crore. Rather than keeping the earnings, Sitara decided to donate the entire amount to charity, a gesture that earned widespread appreciation from fans and the public alike.<\/p>\n

Sitara is no stranger to the spotlight. She previously lent her voice to Baby Elsa in the Telugu version of Frozen 2<\/em> (2019) and appeared in a music video alongside her father. Her older brother Gautham, who acted as a child in Mahesh Babu\u2019s Nenokkadine<\/em> (2014), is currently pursuing a four-year integrated drama course at the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts, New York University. Though focusing on academics, Gautham may eventually return to the screen.<\/p>\n

The family was recently spotted at Hyderabad airport before heading abroad on a holiday, reportedly to celebrate Sitara\u2019s birthday. Sitara showcased stylish and modern outfits during their travels, mirroring the fashion-conscious flair of her parents. Mahesh Babu, keeping to his usual casual look, was seen in a full-sleeved T-shirt, trousers, a black baseball cap, and sunglasses.<\/p>\n

Mahesh Babu is currently gearing up for his much-anticipated film, SSMB29<\/em>, directed by S.S. Rajamouli. The film is expected to feature an impressive cast, including Prithviraj Sukumaran, Priyanka Chopra, and R. Madhavan.<\/p>\n
