[edit] Early life

Mahesh Babu was born in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, to prominent Telugu Cinema Actor Ghatamaneni Siva Rama Krishna and Smt. Indira Devi on August 9, 1975.[10] He is the younger brother of actor turned producer Ramesh Babu Ghattamaneni.[11] He also has two elder sisters, Padmavathi and actress-producer Manjula Ghattamaneni and one younger sister Priyadarshini.[12] All siblings have the rare honor of having acted in films as child artistes. Mahesh’s childhood was spent mostly in Madras under the care of his paternal grandmother Smt. Durgamma and the rest of his family.[13] His father made sure all the children spent sufficient time with him on location and on his sets, especially during holidays. Mahesh many times said that this was where his interest for acting began.[14] The film sets were a second playground and he did not hesitate to face the camera when asked to do a small role in his brother Ramesh Babu‘s debut film, Needa at the age of 4.[15] Mahesh studied at St. Bede‘s School in Chennai while continuing to attend his dad’s filming during holidays.[16] Few of his schoolmates at St.Bede's were Surya (Tamil film actor) and Vishnuvardhan (Tamil film director).[17] Mahesh obtained an Honours Degree in Commerce from Loyola College, Chennai.[18] Mahesh Babu acted in seven of his father's films as a child actor.

[edit] Personal life

Mahesh dated Bollywood actress and former Femina Miss India Namrata Shirodkar for five years. She was his co-star in the movie Vamsi. They got married on February 10, 2005,[19] and have a son named Gautham Krishna.[20]

[edit] Career

[edit] Early Career (1979-1990)

He started his acting career by playing a small role in his brother Ramesh Babu‘s debut film, Needa, under Dr. Dasari Narayana Rao's direction in 1979, at the age of 4.[21] In 1983, at the age of 8, director Kodi Ramakrishna requested him to do a role in the film Poratam since they were having difficulty casting for the role of Krishna’s sibling. This was his first full length feature film.[22] Producer / Director Dhoondy, one of the early backers of Krishna in his struggling days, watched a preview of the movie and was stunned to find out he was Krishna’s own son and remarked that there was a spark in him and he would become an excellent artist.[23] True to that prognostication, Mahesh went on to win the hearts of many Telugu film lovers as a child artist through varied roles. In Sankharavam (1987) he faced the cameras with his father directing him for the first time.[24] Veteran director A. Kodandarami Reddy directed him and his brother Ramesh for Bazaar Rowdy (1988), where he won accolades for his acting.[25] Mugguru Kodukulu (1988) saw him again team up with his brother and father, the father directing them all this time.[26] Gudachari 117 (1989) reunited Mahesh with his first film director Kodi Ramakrishna in a James Bond type of flick for which his dad, the lead in the movie, was famous.[27] Koduku Diddina Kapuram (1989), directed by Krishna again, had Mahesh in a dual role.[28] Balachandrudu and Anna Tammudu (1990) saw the teenaged Mahesh Babu completing his first innings on celluloid after which he concentrated on his studies and went out of the public eye while letting nature take its course through the awkward adolescent years.[29]

In 2001, his successful movie Murari, Directed by Krishna Vamsi and co-starring Sonali Bendre, was released[37] and earned Mahesh plaudits from all sections of audience and from critics.[38] He bagged a Nandi Special Jury Award[39] for his performance in the film. Takkari Donga, produced and directed by Jayant Paranji was released in 2002, where Mahesh essayed the role of a cowboy.[40] The role and the movie were meant to honor the legacy of Krishna as the first ever Indian cowboy and also the first Indian cowboy movie Mosagallaku Mosagadu.[41] His untiring effort in the movie led to another Nandi Special Jury Award.[42] He had another release in that year, Bobby. Mahesh was paired along Aarthi Agarwal in this movie which was directed by Sobhan.[43]

J. Suryaah and had paired with Amisha Patel for the movie Naani.[48] This movie was produced by his sister Manjula Ghattamaneni.[49] The same year also had Mahesh again collaborating with Gunasekhar for his next movie Arjun which was produced by his brother G.
