5th June 2023,Mumbai: Today marks a special occasion as Neena Gupta, the renowned actress, celebrates her 60th birthday. When her daughter Masaba Gupta asked her how she felt on this momentous day, Neena responded with her signature humor. Masaba took to Instagram to honor her mother’s birthday, sharing a video in which she playfully said, “It’s your birthday!” Neena, pointing to a white jacket with a unique design, expressed her gratitude, saying, “Thank you for this birthday gift.” Masaba then asked her mother about her thoughts on this special day. Neena amusingly remarked, “I feel that once you cross the age of 60, birthdays should be met with condolences instead of happy birthday wishes, as my remaining years are dwindling… I mean, my lifespan! So, I don’t find joy or a reason to celebrate, for that matter.”
Neena also shared her plans for the significant day, stating, “I’ll be at home, in my air-conditioned room, preparing and enjoying my favorite meal with my family.” She kept it simple and cozy. In the description of the post, Masaba added, “It’s Neeenaaaaji’s Bday – everybody say Happy Birthday and send wishes for AC rooms & Aloo paneer for her please.”

You inspire me every day.” Choreographer Geeta Kapur commented, “Happy birthday to Neena jee! I hope you live a long and healthy life. Your existence is greatly appreciated.” Shreya Dhanwanthary, known for her role in the film Scam 1992, expressed her fondness, writing, “Aww, happy birthday!” accompanied by a red heart emoticon.
