\u201cI\u2019m very happy that I\u2019m getting such substantial roles. I feel I\u2019ve got a new lease of life. I feel energetic and happening. But I\u2019m also very sad, I wish I was much younger now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2017, Neena took to Instagram to ask for work, which eventually led her to bag Anubhav Sinha\u2019s Mulk. The actor, however, received widespread acclaim for starring in the National Award winning Badhaai Ho.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They take who\u2019s working. I won\u2019t get a role if I say I want to do that. It depends on how saleable you\u2019re at that time.\u201d Post the film, while offers have come her way, Neena said she is \u201crealistic\u201d about the kind of work which will knock her doors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
