'Masaba Masaba': Neena and Masaba Gupta to Farah Khan and Kiara Advani, meet the cast of the Netflix show
'Masaba Masaba' is inspired by Indian fashion designer Masaba Gupta's story. The soon to release Netflix series is about to give viewers a look into the "contrasting lives she lives – from the fancy dos she attends with her celebrity friends to moments she is crying into a bottle of wine on the floor of her apartment." It is a celebration of her life, successes, and failures alike but fear not, this is not about to be sappy at all. Instead, the episodes will be packing in a ton of fun, laughter and tongue-in-cheek humor that is synonymous with her as well as her uber-cool mother, Neena.
