With an array of relationships we have in our live, the one we share with our mother is the most special one. We argue with them, have differences of opinion but still for us, our mother is our first and forever best friend. From backing all our decisions to being our pillar of strength, she is our only constant and no one in this world can take her place. And a similar bond is shared between designer-cum-actress, Masaba Gupta and her actress mother, Neena Gupta.

Neena Gupta, who has always been ahead of her times, is a true exemplar of women empowerment. She has always been an inspiration to many with her liberal thoughts. Neena ji has seen many ups and downs in her personal life. When she had fallen in love with an already married West Indies cricket team captain, Vivian Richards, she didn’t have any regrets as it was pure love for her. In an era where having a kid out of wedlock was a taboo, she had given birth to their love child, Masaba. She had single-handedly raised Masaba while managing her professional life.
Neena Gupta and Masaba Gupta are one of the coolest mother-daughter duos. We love the way they treat their fans with their pictures and social media banters. Masaba, who is in Mukteshwar as she visited her mom for Christmas, revealed a funny episode. She took to her IG stories and shared how her mother thought she was dead as the designer woke up quite early, which never happens. Sharing a picture of her mother sitting on her bed, Masaba wrote, “Good morning from Neenaji who told me she was going to come check on me cos she thought I had died because I woke up at 9.30 am (which has never happened before). It’s Christmas?” atop it.
On May 29, 2020, Neena ji had shared a picture with Masaba from one of her archives, with a caption that could be read as “Missing my baby.” However, Neena ji had forgotten to crop the words, ‘View Insights’ and ‘Promote’ from the picture. And it was Masaba’s reaction to the picture that was unmissable. She had commented, “Miss you too Mummy par screenshot toh crop kar lo.” Not just this, realising her mistake, Neena ji had replied, “@masabagupta sorry baby still learning.” (Also Read: Arjun Kapoor Is Enjoying With His GF, Malaika Arora At Her Sister, Amrita Arora's Beach-House In Goa)

In 2020, Masaba had made her acting debut and had starred in the Netflix series, Masaba Masaba with none other than her mother, Neena Gupta. On November 2, 2020, Masaba had turned 31, and Neena ji had shared an adorable wish for her. Neena ji had taken to her IG handle and had shared a throwback picture with Masaba, in which, the doting daughter had cuddled her mommy. Along with the picture, Neena ji had written, “Happy birthday my child.”
Counted amongst one of the finest fashion designers in India, Masaba Gupta is known for her unconventional prints and feminine drapes. She was named as one of the “Ten Best Indian fashion designers” by style magazine, Culture Trip. On December 22, 2020, Neena Gupta had taken to her IG handle and had shared a collage of a magazine’s cover pictures. The first picture was from the edition, published in 1993, which had featured Neena ji on its cover and the latest edition, published in 2020, featured Masaba. Along with the collage, Neena ji had written, “1993 & 2020, but you’re better my child @masabagupta.” (Also Read: Shilpa Shetty Kundra Shares Glimpses Of Her Mother-In-Law's Work Out Session, Calls Her 'Full Force')
