The actress, who recently featured in Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan, revealed that Masaba helped her "come to terms with it." She said, "Actually, it was Masaba who helped me come to terms with it. Initially, I couldn't accept it at all and it affected me." Masaba and filmmaker Madhu Mantena got married in June 2015 in a court marriage. They filed a divorce at Bandra's Family Court in March last year.

Masaba and Madhu Mantena announced their separation in August 2018 and asked for "privacy."

The actress was quoted by news agency IANS on the sets of reality show Indian Idol 11 as saying, "My father played a very important role in raising my daughter. He especially shifted to Mumbai to help me. I cannot express how thankful I am to him. He was my backbone during the most crucial time of my life."

Neena Gupta was in a relationship with former West Indies cricketer Vivian Richards. Masaba Gupta, who is a well-known designer, was born in 1989 to Neena and Vivian. Later, Vivian Richards got married to Miriam and Neena Gupta to chartered accountant Vivek Mehra.
