MUMBAI: Masaba Gupta has opened up about how she takes inspiration from her mother Neena Gupta. The fashion designer was born to actor Neena Gupta and West Indies cricketer Vivian Richards in 1989. Masaba, who was raised by Neena as a single mother, has said her mother's spirit of not giving up is the most important thing she has learned from her.

Masaba praised Neena's can-do attitude in a recent interview with Pinkvilla. Asked about one thing that she has imbibed from her mother for life, Masaba 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's someone who's 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."
Masaba and Neena were seen together on the screen when they played themselves in Masaba Masaba, which aired on Netflix in August 2020. The show, which will soon release its second season, also recreated the incident when Neena openly asked for work on her Instagram account and was supported in the move by her daughter Masaba.
