Veteran actor Neena Gupta, mother of fashion designer-star Masaba Gupta, has opened up about her past relationship with West Indies cricket legend Vivian Richards. In a heartfelt conversation, Neena shared she once explained to Masaba that her father was ‘not a family man’—noting he was often inconsistent in staying in touch. She recalled that Masaba felt emotionally let down until around age 20, when Richards began making more effort. Neena emphasized, while acknowledging his discipline and soft side, that he never naturally fit the mold of a committed family figure.
