3. When Neena Gupta said that the only time she felt love for someone was Masaba.

Speaking to Humans Of Bombay, Neena Gupta said,

I don’t think there is anything called love between a man and a woman. It starts with lust and then if you get along, you become affectionate to each other and then, it becomes a habit. The only love that I have felt is for Masaba. I don’t know other people might have felt, but mujhe nahi love samajh mein aata (I don’t understand that love).

4. How can you not melt when someone calls you “jaan ki tukdi“?

On Masaba’s birthday, Neena Gupta shared a cute throwback picture of both of them. What’s even cuter is the caption that the actress added to the post. Aww!

5. When the mother and the daughter spent a vacation in Italy and Neena Gupta had to say this.

We can all agree that a vacation with just you and your mother is an experience of a lifetime. When Neena Gupta and Masaba went to Florence for a vacation, this is what she had to say about her daughter. Neena ji never leaves any stone unturned to let the world know how much she loves her daughter.

6. When Masaba called her mother a “powerful icon”.

Masaba is equally vocal about how much she loves and supports her mother. On Neena Gupta’s birthday, Masaba posted a photo dump that included a lot of throwback pictures of the veteran actress. There’s even a picture with Mother Teresa. She captioned the post, “I mean, find me a more powerful icon! The Greatest. Happy Birthday, Mom.”

7. When Neena Gupta revealed how happy she is to see Masaba shine as an actor and as a fashion designer.

Speaking to ETimes, Neena Gupta said,

I am very proud of her and I wish that she gets more work as an actor. I have always criticised her all her life, but now I must say that she is very good.

8. When Masaba called her mom a “survivor”.

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Masaba revealed the one thing that she has imbibed from her mother for life. She said,

Just keep going. I think she has a ‘Never say die’ spirit. I was just telling Sid in the car that she’s a survivor. You know, she is someone who is 67 years old, and she’s just about starting again, you know. So, I think that age is just a number, and that you should never give up, and never say die. I think that’s the one thing I’ve learned from her.

Their bond always manages to make you melt.
