Actress Namrata Shirodkar recently gave fans a glimpse into her Diwali celebrations, posting a series of festive photos featuring her daughter Sitara Ghattamaneni and sister Shilpa Shirodkar. The intimate celebrations quickly caught attention — not just for the lights and laughter, but also for the notable absence of superstar Mahesh Babu.Sharing the pictures on Instagram, Namrata wrote, “An evening filled with warmth, lights, and wonderful people… Truly unforgettable #Diwali nights… Thank you for having us @jhansisureddi.” Fans immediately noticed Mahesh Babu wasn’t present and flooded the comments with questions about his absence. Shilpa Shirodkar was seen joining the celebrations, adding to the family warmth captured in the pictures.
Cheering for Shilpa’s new film
Amid the festive season, Namrata also took to social media to support her sister Shilpa Shirodkar, whose upcoming film Jatadhara has created a buzz. The trailer, recently unveiled by Mahesh Babu, sets the stage for a supernatural thriller. It begins with a story of a treasure buried years ago under powerful tantric rituals. Shilpa’s character learns that her house contains pots of gold — but a sacrifice on the new moon night is required. Enter Sudheer Babu, a ghost hunter debunking paranormal myths, but chaos ensues when Sonakshi Sinha’s Pishachini demands a sacrifice beyond human comprehension.
Namrata was all praise for her sister, sharing her excitement over the Jatadhara trailer and expressing how thrilled she was to see Shilpa in a fresh role. Shilpa, in turn, acknowledged her sister’s support, referring to Namrata as her “biggest cheerleader.”
