Namrata Shirodkar on Sridevi, Madhuri Dixit and Juhi Chawla

A presumed AMA chat of Namrata Shirodkar has gone viral on social media, but is it authentic? This is fake, and we will explain how.

Namrata Shirodkar who impressed the audience with her performance in the films like Pukaar and Vaastav, left Bollywood after her marriage to superstar Mahesh Babu. Recenlty, an old Rediff chat of the actress has gone viral, but is it authentic? 

What is the viral chat of Namrata Shirodkar?

A Reddit user shared the conversation of Namrata Shirodkar with a fan and captioned the post, "I was going through Rediff Chat Archives, where they used to have a monthly group chat session with some artist, and people could chat with them and ask any questions (a bit like our AMA sessions nowadays). Namrata Shirodkar was invited for a chat session when she had just started shooting for her first film Pukar, which took 4 years to complete and release. During the chat session, someone asked her about her opinion on Sridevi, Juhi Chawla, and Madhuri Dixit. I was shocked by her comments on Sridevi: 'frigid as ice' and 'low society'. Same for Juhi. Not sure why she said so, especially considering that Pukar was produced by Boney Kapoor, Sridevi's husband. Funny note: her husband Mahesh Babu has called Sridevi his favorite actress, in multiple interviews." 

Namrata shirodkar's viral responses in this chat are fake

A representative from the actress team has clarified that the viral chat is 'fake', and Namrata hasn't given any such statements ever. So as per the actress' team, this viral chat is not authentic, and it is spreading wrong information about the talent.
