Neena Gupta and Vivian Richard's daughter Masaba (20) has expressed a desire to follow her mother's footsteps and become an actress. Neena, however, is not supportive of her daughter's decision. Said Neena, "I don't want my daughter to be an actress. I have gone through it all and know what it entails. I know her friends want to be a part of tinsel town, but who doesn't want to be?" She added, "Masaba is at a stage where she is trying to figure out what to do. She feels acting is an option. But she still has a year to go at SNDT University where she is studying fashion designing."





Neena had defied norms and created a scandal when she decided to have a child out of wedlock with Vivian Richards, the legendary West Indian cricketer. Last year, Neena wed Delhi-based chartered accountant Vivek Mehra, but she says Masaba will always remains her top priority. Masaba has been in touch with her father Viv and his family.
