Neena Gupta reveals why she's 'jealous' of Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Alia Bhatt!

Indian celebrities like Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Deepika Padukone and now, Alia Bhatt are representing the country on the global stage. Earlier this year, Deepika was at the Oscars as one of the presenters and recently, Priyanka and Alia walked the stairs at the MET Gala. Talking about the younger generation of actresses being invited to international events, Neena Gupta said in an interview that she feels envious of them for the kind of exposure they get.

In an interview with a news portal, the veteran actress said, "I wish we also had the same kind of exposure. I think about it every passing minute. I feel envious every second (smiles). I wonder what if I was a young actor in this day and age! I could have achieved so much more. Having said that, I know that you can’t have everything that you wish for. I definitely do feel thankful for all the work that’s coming my way even at this age. But yes, I feel very, very jealous when I look at them wearing gowns and walking [on the global stage]."

The Badhaai Ho actress further shared that if she's called to any international event, she'll be in for it. "If they call me, I’m game. I don’t have the body to wear a gown. So, I’ll wear a very beautiful saree if I’m invited to go [to an international event]. But no one’s inviting me (laughs). If an opportunity comes my way, I’ve Masaba to style me," she added.
