Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu's daughter Sitara Ghattamaneni seems to be keen on following her father's footsteps and has taken the first step in the world of acting. The young star kid recently did an ad film for a jewellery brand. Reportedly, she gave away the first salary that she earned from the commercial to a charity.
Along with the preview of a short film titled 'Princess' for a jewellery brand in which she had acted, Sitara also launched the lookbook for a collection named after her at a five-star hotel in Hyderabad, along with her mother Namrata Ghattamaneni.
At the launch, the teenager also interacted with the media. She said she liked to see movies and was very interested in acting in them, and that she had acquired her confidence from her mother. She said her father was very happy to see the signature jewellery collection being launched at Times Square, New York, and got emotional when he saw the advertising video.
Last week, Sitara made her debut on Times Square Billboard, and Mahesh shared an adorable post for his baby girl on Instagram. He wrote, "Lighting up the Times Square!! So so proud of you, my firecracker. Continue to dazzle and shine!"
