Neena Gupta speaks about her latest show, Panchayat Season 4, and slaying it in Bollywood at 66
Even at 66, there's no slowing Neena Gupta down. Four decades on in the film industry, the actor is grateful that her career remains vibrant with recent projects like Metro In Dino and Panchayat Season 4 keeping her firmly in the spotlight. Now a grandmother, Neena is embracing this new chapter of life with the same joy and versatility she brings to her acting.
Playing the matriarch in Panchayat Season 4 is a gift that she doesn't take for granted. In the show, Neena steps into the role of a politician, contesting elections in a village that has become familiar to audiences from across the country. "I am grateful to the show. The whole country knows me because of Panchayat. People from small villages, big towns, and even elite groups know me because they watch the show. This, for me, is an achievement. Shooting for the show has been a pleasant experience as we are one big family," she says.
