Earlier, Neha was seen campaigning for her father in Bihar. In an interview with India Today, Neha was asked if coming from a political background has backfired on her, to which the actress said, "I started in Bollywood around 15 years back and my dad won his first election in 2014. So, we kind of started at the same time and he wasn't powerful back then. So, I never felt that people believed that her father was from Congress and that we support the opposition, so it's an issue. This has never backfired for me''.

The 'Youngistaan' actress also said that she has reached a place in the industry purely on the basis of her talent and hard work. She added, ''Also, I am not here to promote a particular party. I am just supporting my father, like any child would do for their parents. I am not campaigning for or against an ideology. I have always been cast for my talent, and I hope that's how it's going to be always''.

On the professional front, Neha was recently seen in 'Illegal 3'. She will be next seen in the suspense thriller '36 Days'.
