Neena Gupta won hearts last year with her incredible performance in Badhaai Ho. Now, she has gone down memory lane and posted some photographs from her National School of Drama days. Neena Gupta, who passed out from NSD in 1980, took to Instagram to post photos of Anupam Kher, Anu Kapoor, Zeenat Khan, Alok Nath, Satish Kaushik, Pankaj Kapoor, and Sushmita Mukherjee.
Anupam Kher, who made his debut with Saaransh in 1984, looks absolutely different with mustaches. ActorSatish Kaushik is almost unrecognisable with side-parted hair and mustaches.
Neena Gupta has worked with Anupam Kher in films like Daddy, Khalnayak and Utsav.
In the work front, Neena Gupta will be playing Akshay Kumar’s mother in Rohit Shetty’s upcoming cop drama Sooryavanshi. But don’t expect Neena to do her best impression of Farida Jalal or Nirupa Roy. She told Mumbai Mirror, “This is an interesting role because it isn’t the stereotypical mother who asks his son about food, marriage, etc., but has several dimensions. There is a new temperament to the mother, and you will get to see a very different dynamic between Akshay, Katrina and me. This is a new, sweet and interesting space that I am looking to explore.”
