Key Takeaways
Mumbai, March 11 (NationPress) Fashion designer and actress Masaba Gupta expressed her awe at the incredible coolness of her parents, actress Neena Gupta and cricket icon Sir Viv Richards. She humorously mentioned that keeping up with her parents is quite the challenge, though she believes her daughter might just surpass them in that regard.
On Wednesday, Masaba shared a delightful video of her father on Instagram, reminiscing about his past experiences.
In her caption, she exclaimed, “Why are my parents SO. DAMN. COOL?! I can’t keep up. But I have a feeling my daughter will (sic).”
The video features the cricket legend engaging in conversation with a woman. Reflecting on his memories from the Oval stadium, he stated, “I'm listening to something which took place in 1976 at the Oval, Blast from the Past. I think I managed to score 2-9-1, so I'm just trying to recall and remember those days. It sounds pretty good.”
Cricket is among the most celebrated sports in the Commonwealth. When asked about its significance, he replied, “Oh, it's a great game and it's the largest, I think, in terms of sporting activities to take place, and the Commonwealth in itself has played a huge role. My country would have been Antigua and Barbuda, so I'm really excited about that.”
In 1988, he proudly carried the flag for Antigua at the Commonwealth Games. Reflecting on the honor of representing his country again, he said, “Oh, that period was a great time for me. I really enjoyed that. I think we were in Kuala Lumpur. This now beats it in a big way because I would have spent a lot of time in this country, so I'm just happy to be here again.”
Discussing the vibrant culture of the Caribbean, he added, “Oh, the Caribbean, we have so much to offer. As you know, most of the Caribbean islands have been in the Commonwealth as well. We're from a place where the weather is as good as any. I'm not just a representative of Antigua and Barbuda, but also a representative of the rest in this, being captain for many years as well.”
Masaba, the daughter of Neena Gupta and Viv Richards, was raised in Mumbai and carved a niche for herself in the fashion industry, known for her striking prints and unconventional designs.
Her brand has partnered with numerous Indian retail and lifestyle companies.
