Namrata Shirodkar and Mahesh Babu's son Gautham is 12-years-old today and the proud parents shared their messages for their "little boy" on Instagram. Both messages are super-duper adorable and it's difficult to say which one was the winner. Mom Namrata Shirodkar soaked her message in heart emoticons, which she shared with a picture of Gautham with his father. Namrata wrote: "Love, love and more love. As I see you grow each year my little boy is 12 today... I wish you a very happy birthday and many more to come!! I wish you achieve all that you ever wish for and more may you be the happiest soul and kind and giving as you have always been... stay our little "jibil" always. I love you forever." She also doubled as her daughter Sitara's messenger and said: "Sitara wishes you too and says she loves you more than anything in her world."
On his Instagram page, Mahesh Babu posted a picture of himself with Gautham on a film set, in which we can see Gautham's interest in films. The Bharat Ane Nenu actor captioned it: "Time flies... My son turns 12.Wishing my most loved the happiest birthday ever. Endless love and blessings... Even happier to see him grow into a fine young man. Gautam Ghattamaneni - His proud father."
Here are Namrata Shirodkar and Mahesh Babu's posts.
Difficult to decide who won? Let's say it was a tie.
