When asked if she would like to "live forever," Namrata replied that she would not only because she "believed no one could live forever." Her response was not well-received by the judges, and she finished in sixth place in Miss Universe 1993.

It seems that many are not delighted with Namrata's answer as her old video is being discussed on Reddit. Some of them even claimed that her "dumb" response to the "hypothetical" question she was asked ruined her chance to win the Miss Universe title.

In 1993, Shirodkar was picked as the first runner-up while representing India in the Miss Asia Pacific pageant.

Namrata Shirodkar appeared in several films including 'Kachche Dhaage', 'Vaastav: The Reality', 'Pukar', 'Dil Vil Pyar Vyar', and 'Bride and Prejudice'. After being married to Mahesh Babu in 2005, Namrata gave up her career. The couple have have two children together – daughter Sitara Ghattamaneni and son Gautam Ghattamaneni.
