Bollywood veteran actress Neena Gupta recently delighted fans by sharing a warm picture with her Badhaai Ho co-star Gajraj Rao, expressing that she has been 'waiting to work together, again.'

Sharing the picture on her social media account, Neena wrote, "Waiting to work together, again @gajrajrao."

For the uninitiated, Neena Gupta and Gajraj Rao won hearts with their respective performances in the 2018 film Badhaai Ho.

The two had portrayed a middle-aged couple dealing with an unexpected pregnancy.

Their on-screen chemistry and natural performances had won over audiences, making the movie a superhit.

The movie starred Ayushman Khurrana, Sanya Malhotra, and late Surekha Sikri.

Following Badhaai Ho's success, the franchise expanded with Badhaai Do, which released in 2022.

Talking about Neena Gupta, the actress has had a long and illustrious career in the Hindi entertainment industry.

From critically acclaimed projects like Woh Chokri to mainstream and commercial hits like Badhaai Ho and recent appearances in films and web series like Vadh, the actress has consistently reinvented herself.

On the personal front, Neena Gupta is the mother of Bollywood ace designer Masaba Gupta.

A few years ago, Neena Gupta had taken the internet by storm after she openly asked for work, through a post on her social media account.

She had written, 'I live in Mumbai and am a good actor looking for good parts to play.'

Neena Gupta is an inspiration. From that bold "looking for work" post to consistently delivering stellar performances, she shows age is just a number. More power to her! Directors, please cast these legends together again.

Honestly, we need more stories centered around older characters. Badhaai Ho worked because it was relatable to so many families. Hope the industry listens and creates another meaningful project for them.

As someone relatively new to Indian cinema, Badhaai Ho was a delightful surprise. Their performances were the soul of the film. It's great to see such genuine camaraderie off-screen too. Fingers crossed for a collaboration!

Respectfully, while I love them both, I hope if they reunite, it's not just a rehash of Badhaai Ho. They are capable actors who can explore different dynamics. Let's hope for a fresh, challenging script that does them justice.

The picture is so cute! They both look fabulous. Gajraj Rao's subtle comedy and Neena ji's expressive eyes are a perfect combo. Bollywood needs more such jodis. Waiting eagerly for an announcement! 😍
