‘I’m inspired by her’

When Navya was asked what advice she has for her cousin Aaradhya, she candidly stated that the latter belongs to a ‘strong generation of women’ who are much more informed than she was at her age.

She said, “She’s far wiser than I was at her age. That’s a trend in general. Young kids today are so well informed, they’re far ahead of us. I was not as informed, wise or intelligent at her age. We have a strong generation of young women who want to change the world in so many ways, that’s an admirable trait I see in her as well. So more than me giving her advice or inspiration, I think I take a lot from her. I see so much she’s going do with her life. I can’t wait for that.”

Navya also revealed the advice she received from her mom, Shweta Bachchan-Nanda and grandmother, Jaya Bachchan, that she would also share with others. She said, “They’ve taught me to stand for what I believe in and to use my voice for the right reasons,” she said.
