About Mrs. Uppalapati Madhavi Devi
Wife of Shri Pratap Mahendra and a proud mother of two daughters, Mrs. Uppalapati hails from Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh. She was born on September 15, 1969, in Chigurupadu, Atchampet Mandalam, Guntur District. Her parents, Kakarlapudi Krishnam Raju and Dattatreyamma, were teachers whose values deeply shaped her life — her father’s straight forward nature and her mother’s spirituality continue to inspire her.
Despite being born into an orthodox Kshatriya family with little encouragement for extracurricular pursuits, Madhavi Devi pursued education with passion. She earned her B.A. and B.Ed. by her own determination and, after marriage, went on to complete her M.A. in History and English. Her deep enthusiasm for learning reflected her belief in challenging societal norms that restrict women’s growth.
She started her teaching carrier to support her family and later she became the strength of the family. She sacrificed many things to brought up her children.
In this process she faced many obstacles from her own family and finally she succeeded in giving them good future and a life they can be proud of. She answered the critisisers with her achievements which they never imagined.
With an illustrious teaching career spanning over 25 years, she has devoted her life to shaping young minds. More than just a teacher, she has been a mentor, guide, and role model — remembered for her positivity, helping nature, and warmth.
A yoga enthusiast and believer in fitness and meditation, she advocates for women’s financial independence and has instilled these values in her daughters, raising them to be strong, independent women.

In a world that often treats age as a limitation, Mrs. Madhavi Devi proves that passion, elegance, and ambition know no age. She stands tall as an inspiration for women everywhere, showing that it is never too late to rediscover oneself, embrace challenges, and shine in new roles.
Her story is not just about winning a crown — it is about courage, transformation, and the celebration of womanhood at every stage of life. With grace in her stride and fire in her heart, she walks this path for every woman who dares to dream beyond boundaries.
Her philosophy is rooted in the belief that human birth is the highest privilege, offering the unique opportunity for knowledge, wisdom, and spiritual growth — and that women, as the pillars of families, must pass on these values to future generations.
Today, she stands as a role model not only for her daughters but also for countless women who aspire to break barriers. Her life is proof that confidence is ageless, and beauty is fearless.

- Sai Mohana, pursuing her BBA final year.
They have been her strongest cheer leaders encouraging her to take bold steps towards her dreams.
