She even recalled how she was teased by boys when she was a professional tennis player,” There was a lot of catcalling from the boys about my body. I was a professional tennis player, so I had these broad shoulders and ripped arms and legs. I also developed very early, so I was not dainty, or feminine, so it was like where is this thing from? I was very happy in my own bubble in school, I did my own thing. I didn’t make great friends in school which I regret apart 2-3 of them.”

Masaba even revealed she was called a bastard child, as her mother Neena Gupta had her before marriage, “It was used against me 100 percent, it was public and it was very interesting because the kids would speak about it like adults. I could hear them repeating something they heard in their house. One kid went on to say, ‘Hey bast**d, I believe you are a bast**d child’. This was when I was in the 7th grade. A lot of people also didn’t understand how I looked physically or why I looked like that”.

Masaba is a successful entrepreneur and fashion designer today and she is all set to embrace motherhood.
