The admission, raw and moving, came not from cynicism, but from introspection. “I know there is love of a child, love of parents,” she continued, “but I don’t think I sort of understood any other person’s love. So far, I have not experienced it. I hope before I die, I might be able to experience or understand it. If I tell the truth, I don’t think I know what love is.” Her words offered a striking counter-narrative to the usual romantic idealism that often surrounds film promotions, especially those dealing with love, like Metro In Dino.
Gupta’s personal journey with love has indeed been layered and unconventional. From a brief early marriage to Amlan Kusum Ghose during her IIT-Delhi days, to a relationship with West Indies cricketer Vivian Richards — with whom she had her daughter, designer Masaba Gupta — Gupta has lived life on her own terms. Choosing to raise Masaba as a single mother in the late '80s, she defied societal norms at a time when single motherhood was rarely accepted or discussed. In 2008, she married chartered accountant Vivek Mehra, yet her reflections suggest that even this chapter hasn't fully answered her inner questions about love.
In a world where public figures often present polished, curated versions of their personal lives, Neena Gupta’s candor stood out. It was a quiet reminder that love — in all its forms — remains a deeply personal, often elusive experience. And perhaps, as Gupta herself hopes, some truths about love are still waiting to unfold, no matter one’s age or past.
