‘Aaradhya Bachchan is far wiser than I was at her age, I’m inspired by her’: Navya Naveli Nanda

Navya Naveli Nanda, the granddaughter of Amitabh Bachchan, is popular for her podcast What The Hell Navya, in which she converses with her mother Shweta Bachchan and grandmother Jaya Bachchan about various topics. Recently, Navya was in the news for skipping a question about whether she would have Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, her aunt, on the podcast. However, Navya appears to be pretty fond of her cousin, Aaradhya Bachchan, according to a recent interview.

Chatting with The Times of India, Navya was asked to give one piece of advice to the 12-year-old Aaradhya. Navya said that Aaradhya, age notwithstanding, is far more intelligent than she ever was at the age of 12, and that she doesn’t need to give her any life lessons at all. Navya noted that youngsters these days are far wiser than their elders and lauded their ambitions to change the world for good.

Navya also admitted that she is inspired by Aaradhya. Heaping praise on her, she said she can’t wait to see the things that Aaradhya accomplishes. Notably, Navya made a similar observation about Aaradhya in an interview with News18. She was quoted as saying, “I think I just admire her that such a young age, she is so aware of things and she’s very wise. Just happy to have a younger sister in the house to share things with but I don’t think I can give her advice, she is very assured, confident, and pretty aware of what’s going on so I think that’s a very commendable thing.”

Aaradhya, who is currently in the 10th standard at the Dhirubhai Ambani International School, might leave for London for further studies.
