Namrita revealed with a laugh, “I can never bring myself to watch Mahesh’s films.” And says “It’s way, way too stressful for me. All his family members are eager to attend and enjoy previews of his films like normal people. Not me.”

She added,“I sit at home chewing my nails, praying, wondering if this one will be as big as the previous one and so on. It’s agony. Mahesh tells me to chill. But that’s impossible to do,” laughs Namrita nervously while monitoring the opening collection of recent movie Maharshi. Namrita said she is pleased by the figures that Maharshi brought. “The opening is stupendous. The praise is pouring in,” said Namrita.

However, Namrita said she was never bothered about her own films. She said, “I didn’t really care about my career. I never sought roles, never asked any director to sign me. I did some really big films like Vaastav with Sanjay Dutt, Pukar with Anil Kapoor and Jab Pyaar Kissise Hota Hai with Salman Khan. I didn’t make any effort to cash in on their success.”

She further added that it was her sister Shilpa Shirodkar who was career driven. “I was laid back. I never bothered with box office. I guess I’m making up for my own lack of interest in my career by being so keenly interested in my husband’s career,” chimed Namrita.

Further making us go awww, Namrita stated that there was never a burning desire in her to be a top actress. “I happily gave up my career to marry Mahesh. In the 14 years of marriage there hasn’t been a single moment of regret or bitterness,” Namrita quipped.
