Neena Gupta, who has quite a bit of a reputation for being super candid, in a recent interview with News18 opened up about how she felt after Alia Bhatt and Priyanka Chopra's Met Gala appearances this year. Neena Gupta said, "I wish we also had the same kind of exposure. I think about it every passing minute. I feel envious every second. I wonder what if I was a young actor in this day and age! I could have achieved so much more. Having said that, I know that you can't have everything that you wish for." The veteran actor added, "I definitely do feel thankful for all the work that's coming my way even at this age. But yes, I feel very, very jealous when I look at them wearing gowns and walking."
