In a chat with Hindustan Times, Upasana was asked if she ever felt lost in Ram Charan’s shadow and she said, “I want that to happen, because they say behind every successful man there is a woman. When he is shining, it’s great to be the shadow, and when I shine, he is secure enough to be mine.” Upasana also spoke about the initial struggles of being a star wife, primarily because she came from a non-filmy family.

“Previously, it was tough (being married to a star) I came from a different world. Now, I feel proud being his shadow. I learnt that there is so much beauty in being that person for him. He is that for me, and that support is really important. When you shine, there are so many things you are going through, and you need that one person to fall back on,” she said.

Upasana has beautifully carried forward her family legacy. Beyond being my wife, she’s my rock and the force that keeps us together. I could truly never replicate what she does and she has truly carved her own incredible path.”
