Neena Gupta Calls 'Saath Saath' Her Biggest Career Mistake in New Interview

She takes responsibility, citing impatience, low self-esteem, absent guidance.

Overview

  • Gupta says taking a supporting role in Saath Saath cost her the chance to be viewed as a commercial leading heroine.
  • She acknowledges delayed recognition as largely her own fault and says accepting that has helped her let go of bitterness.
  • The actor reflects that she did not understand the industry's business rules early on and had no mentor to guide her.
  • She describes her recent run as a 'second innings' that began with Badhaai Ho, noting most widespread acclaim arrived after she turned 50.
  • Coverage notes she was recently seen in Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera and is set to appear in Vadh 2 with Sanjay Mishra, scheduled to release on February 6.
