Neena Gupta herself has expressed her joy in celebrating Diwali with her family. Speaking to ANI, she revealed that she planned a special Diwali this year at her home in Mukteshwar, in the hills. She mentioned a small gathering of close neighbors, emphasizing a peaceful and intimate celebration. "I am celebrating Diwali in a very special way because I am going to my home in Mukteshwar in the hills. There will be a small gathering of about five to six of our neighbours. We'll eat, drink, and enjoy together," she stated. This approach aligns with her desire for a more "peaceful" Diwali, moving away from the noise and pollution associated with firecrackers.
While Neena Gupta's celebration focused on a serene gathering in the mountains, other Bollywood celebrities also shared their Diwali plans.

Their daughter, Tina Ahuja, added that she would be making colorful rangolis and decorating the house with lamps.
Neena Gupta was last seen in 'Panchayat Season 4,' currently streaming on Prime Video. She also featured in Anurag Basu's film 'Metro... In Dino'.
