In an interview with ANI, Neena admitted that doing the 1982 film 'Saath Saath' turned out to be the "biggest disaster" of her career. In the film, she played a supporting role of a young, bespectacled, "know-it-all" girl. Although the role became popular and was loved by moviebuffs, the actress feels it put her into a fixed image, which led filmmakers to stop seeing her as a "leading heroine."
