Why shouldn't I try..!
An innocent mother, a woman who backs her up, a wife who doesn't obey her husband, a daughter-in-law who serves her in-laws... these are the roles that Pragathi Mahavadi played on the Telugu screen.

Innocent mother, mother who turns her back, wife who doesn't obey her husband, daughter-in-law who serves her in-laws... I can't keep saying this but Pragati on Telugu screen Many characters played by Mahavadi. No matter what role she plays, no one but Pragathi can do it justice. However, in contrast, we want to excel in powerlifting. He won gold and silver medals at the international level, overcoming all the slanders, trolls, taunts. When she is greeted by 'Vasundhara'...
How is the daily routine...
If there is a shooting, he gets up in a hurry, finishes the work and reaches there on time. Otherwise my day starts late. However, I will definitely do gym for two and a half hours a day. Sometimes it crosses the limit.
About current success...
Recently won four medals in the Asian Open and Masters Powerlifting Championship held in Turkey. Silver in all-around game, gold in deadlift, two silver medals in bench and squat lifting. It was an unexpected win. Success gave me motivation to win more medals.
Reasons for choosing powerlifting?
I am a foodie. Loves to eat and sleep. But fitness is more important in the film industry. My goal is to be healthy even if I am chubby. That's why fitness came into my routine fifteen years ago. I used to go to the gym and do exercises. It was seen as a sport by chance. Knowing that a woman in our community is excelling in powerlifting... I thought why not give it a try. Immediately joined the training. Unexpectedly, it became a part of my life.
Did you leave the film industry because of this?
No! Why did you start powerlifting during the lockdown? Even if there are opportunities in the industry after covid... I waited for good roles. Powerlifting is the reason for this patience. Because earlier there was something unsatisfying. Good roles are not coming, they are not able to do it. Moreover, I used to get angry at small things. Now overcome them all. Sport has taught me to give my best without expecting results.
Problems faced in the beginning?
There are more people who value my decisions in terms of family. If my daughter... she encourages me by saying 'Mom you can do it'. But I was troubled by the trolls. I was very sad at first. But after seeing my patience being tested... I decided that I had to answer them and resisted a bit more. Who..?
Common housewives are my inspiration. I have seen many people in real life who are taking steps in coordination and arranging everything inside. When you know and read about them, you feel very inspired. After all, the woman who got me started with powerlifting was also a housewife. Living such a luxurious life... My success is very small in front of them.
Future Goals...
There is nothing special about goals. Just go with the flow. I want to excel in international competitions.
MESSAGE TO TODAY'S GENERATION...
Growth is important no matter where you are, no matter what you do. Am I different now than I was ten years ago? no We have to ask ourselves that. Find happiness in the little things. Life should not be limited to one thing. We should try to show our talent in different fields.
The voice changes. If you eat more protein, your physique will become like boys... these are all myths. Any number of exercises can be done within the limits as long as it does not harm the health. When I found out that I was learning this... many people tried to go back with the same doubts. There were no people who warned that the film opportunities would be lost. Ignoring all of that, I stepped forward.
