Several industry giants paid a tribute to the actress. Quantico star Priyanka Chopra believes Neena is an inspiration. Her own daughter and renowned fashion designer, Masaba Gupta, shared the post and advised everyone, “Don t work with anyone who won t respect you , at this age, that s the bare minimum and it s a strange strange industry.”

After the post came into notice, the award-winning actress revealed the reason why certain people have stopped casting her in the movies. “Everybody thinks that after my marriage, I have moved to Delhi and I don’t work anymore. So, I get so put off and then I see so many roles being offered to other actors of my age.”

 

Just the other day I was telling someone .. how I am never afraid/ shy to ask for work. Its obviously genetic. My mother put up this post on her instagram today. I mean,my 62yr old national award winning mother. She told me I must always work .. no matter what .. it keeps you from getting old...she told me they don t write for women her age anymore ... I don t think anyone can replicate what she did for TV anymore.. she complains that she can t do PR .. but says  I do good work,that s my PR .. time and again we ve spoken about how whatever she asks for ... in due time ,she gets... But that s the magic of a pure heart. The universe just can t refuse you... the only advice I have the guts to give her is.. don t work with anyone who won t respect you ,at this age , that s the bare minimum & it s a strange strange industry she s in... the advice she gives me in return is.. whatever you do,free ka PR mat khaana,your only someone s kid/wife/niece/sister for this long. Prove yourself. WORK. Walk the talk & fly @neena_gupta #neenaji
