Neena Gupta got wings in puberty.


- 'Now I am getting as much work as I did not get in my youth. I wake up in the morning and am happy that I have to leave the house for shooting.'

In the last four-five years, Neena Gupta did not get to do as much and as much work as she did at a young age. Recently his 'Vadh' with Sanjay Mishra was released. Written-directed by Jaspal Singh Sandhu, the movie depicts how an aristocratic couple murders the person who has ruined their life. As a teacher, the person who palmed the students calls the person who kills them as 'slaughter' instead of murder. He believes that demons are 'slaughtered', not killed.

Interestingly, this movie also revolves around a mature couple like 'Badhai Ho'. The actress says that what is more exciting is that this movie has me and Sanjay Mishra in the lead roles. When I saw the film myself, I realized how much the director has presented things that shock the audience. He further says that the movie revolves around an older couple like 'Badhai Ho'. When Gajraj Rao and I were working on Badhai Ho, Ayushmann Khurrana used to tell us that I am the main hero of the film, but I think the entire film revolves around you. I have no hesitation in saying that this film has opened new doors for my career. The actress adds that in fact the search for the actors of this film went on for three years. And his role was offered to Tabu before me. Alas, it was Tabu who recommended my name. Not only this, Ayushmann Khurrana also told the director Amit Sharma during the casting that I look very hot. After that, the director saw my short film 'Khujali' with Jackie Shroff and thought of casting me in the film. Instead of auditioning me, he called me to his office dressed like a middle-class housewife. That's how I went there and he cast me in this film.

After seeing Neena Gupta in films with Gajraj Rao and Sanjay Mishra, one might think that she has disproved the belief that Hindi film leads are all young. Nina herself believes this. He says that many people still tell me that my career got a new dimension because I sought work on social media. But this is not true. Actually, at that time there were rumors that I was going to live in Delhi with my husband. I wrote on social media to refute the rumor that I am still in Mumbai and free to work. Well, it is true that I started getting work after that. But 'Badhai Ho' has given a new dimension to my career. After that film, special roles started being written for me. Viewers are also liking my 'Vadh' a lot. I am getting as much work now as I didn't get when I was young. Every morning I wake up happy that I have to leave the house for shooting.

About her upcoming projects, the actress says that I have done Vijay Maurya's very good film 'Saboon'. It features my co-star Jackie Shroff. Now the post production work of the film is going on. My other film 'Baa' is ready. I have also done R Balki's short film 'Lust Stories-2'. The shooting of Anurag Basu's 'Metro - In Dinon' will soon begin.
