Upasana Shared Most Powerful Woman of 2025

Upasana Kamineni doesn’t just post casually, she posts with purpose. The entrepreneur and wife of actor Ram Charan recently took to social media to share something deeply personal and powerful a list of the Most Powerful Women of 2025. While the names on it include industry titans like Nita Ambani, Isha Ambani, and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, it was the third name that struck a chord with her: her own mother, Shobana Kamineni.

For those who know Upasana, this wasn’t just about pride, but emotion. Seeing Shobana ranked among the top, Upasana called it a “moment of a lifetime,” one that every child dreams of. Shobana, a powerhouse in healthcare and a strong voice in wildlife conservation, is the executive vice-chairperson of Apollo Hospitals. She’s not just a boardroom leader but someone who has consistently broken boundaries with her work, especially in women’s healthcare and sustainability.

She didn’t go overboard with long speeches. The post felt real. Just a daughter admiring her mother’s journey. In a space where most people chase hashtags and trends, this post felt grounded. It reminded people that recognition can mean more when it’s personal.

Many who came across the post saw more than just a ranking. They saw a quiet kind of inspiration the kind that shapes how you grow up and what you aim for. Not every powerful woman wears power loudly, and Shobana’s name on that list proved it.
