Actor Neena Gupta, often admired for her unfiltered interviews and fearless fashion choices, shared a candid moment from the airport on Instagram. Posting a video, she revealed how she gets through long waiting hours by carrying her own homemade snack instead of relying on airport food.

In the clip, Neena sat in the waiting area dressed in a stylish black outfit, speaking directly to the camera. She explained that she prefers bringing a tiffin filled with roti rolls whenever she travels. The rolls, she added, are stuffed with potatoes, chillies, paneer, onions and other ingredients, making them both wholesome and familiar. Captioning her post, she wrote, “Shorts wali desi girl.”

However, her choice of outfit attracted an unsolicited remark. One user commented: “Very good …only request dont show your legs, they are not well toned. We have never seen dadi mummy showing their legs this way. Ageing gracefully is excellent.” While another defended her against the body-shaming, Neena herself decided to respond.

Taking the remark head-on, she replied, “Don’t worry. These people who talk like this are basically jealous that they don’t have such good body, so ignore.”

On the professional front, Neena was last seen in Anurag Basu’s Metro… In Dino, which brought together a stellar ensemble including Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, Konkona Sen Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi and Anupam Kher. The romantic drama proved to be a commercial success at the box office.
