Masaba Gupta opens up about facing body-shaming and racism: ‘Someone compared me to Om Puri’ | Bollywood

Namaste doston! Khabree Kiran yahaan, bringing you the latest masala from the tinsel town. This time, it’s about none other than our very own multi-talented diva, Masaba Gupta! Sit tight and get ready for some spicy gossip with a twist of wit and sarcasm!

Masaba Gupta: The Warrior Against Sexism and Racism

Arrey bhai, Masaba Gupta is not just a fashionista or an on-screen sensation; she’s also a warrior battling some serious rubbish thrown her way. Recently, during a chat with Faye D’Souza on her YouTube channel, she shared that she faces sexist and racist remarks regularly. Kyun bhai, why can’t people just mind their own business?

Aur suno, ek bande ne toh Masaba ko late actor Om Puri se compare kar diya! Matlab, seriously? Om Puri ji ki acting talent ke samne sab jhukte hain, lekin bhai, yeh kya bakwas hai? Masaba ka kehna hai, “People notice my skin texture and acne scars, but I keep pushing harder. Maybe in 10 years, someone will look beyond my scars.”

Masaba Gupta on battling sexism and body-shaming

While spilling the beans on her daily struggles, Masaba said, “Lighting ka kitna bada role hota hai, yeh toh main hi jaanti hoon. Kabhi lighting thoda sa different hota hai toh log kehte hain, ‘Arrey, aapki skin itni fair kaise hai?’ Bas bhai, filter lagake thoda blur ho jata hai. Phir koi keh deta hai, ‘Aap makeup brand kyun kar rahi ho, aapki skin toh Om Puri jaisi hai.’ Seriously, what nonsense!”

Masaba’s Personal Life: A Roller Coaster

Masaba, the daughter of legendary cricketer Sir Viv Richards and veteran actress Neena Gupta, has had her share of ups and downs in her personal life. She tied the knot with film producer Madhu Mantena in 2015, but they called it quits in 2018, finalizing their divorce in September 2019. Phir kya, Masaba found love again and married actor Satyadeep Mishra in January 2023. And guess what? The couple announced their pregnancy in April 2024. Yay, baby on board! 🎉

Masaba Gupta’s Acting Career: Lights, Camera, Action!

Our fashion icon turned actress has quite the portfolio. She featured in the biographical drama series Masaba Masaba from 2020 to 2022, playing none other than herself.

Bhai log, Bollywood is not just about glamour and glitz. There’s a lot of drama behind the scenes too! So, next time you see a celeb, remember they’re fighting battles you can’t even imagine. Aur haan, lighting ka dhyaan rakho, warna tum bhi Om Puri ban sakte ho! 😜
