function fails to exit

[harig3]

very basic recursion function expected to print the value of sum upto the entered number from 1, but prints the out put several times, instead of only ones. however if I add exit() after print, it works. Please help what is wrong in this code, as I dont want to use exit(). kindly help

def recsum (entnf,sumf):
    while entnf>0:
        sumf=sumf+entnf
        entnf-=1
        recsum(entnf,sumf)
    print("Condition failed, coming out of the loop")
    print("Sum is: ", sumf)
    #exit()
print("ENter the number for which you want to calculate sum upto 0: ")
numbr = int(input())
print("Entered # is: ",numbr)
sum = 0
recsum(numbr,sum)

The output is:

Condition failed, coming out of the loop
Sum is: 6
Condition failed, coming out of the loop
Sum is: 6
Condition failed, coming out of the loop
Sum is: 6
Condition failed, coming out of the loop
Sum is: 6
Condition failed, coming out of the loop
Sum is: 6

Sum is: 6
