FINALLY, Jaya Bachchan Explains Her Social Media Absence: “Enough is Enough”

Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter Shweta Bachchan and her grandmother Jaya Bachchan will be seen talking about social media in a forthcoming episode of her podcast, What The Hell Navya. In a recently published episode teaser, Navya was heard referring to the two women as “intelligent individuals on the internet.”

Shweta said, “I wish we had the internet when I was growing up because it would have made homework and stuff so much easier,” while Jaya chuckled at Navya’s remark. Jaya said, “When I was younger, we had to arrange a call. There were two sorts of calls: an emergency call and an everyday call. It had to have been an emergency call if you talked with your lover.

Jaya Bachchan was then seen explaining why she avoids social media after this. The world is aware of plenty about us. We don’t have to post on Instagram,” the woman said.

In an earlier episode of the program, Jaya was also shown disciplining trolls. If they had the guts, the seasoned actress invited them to have a face-to-face conversation with her. “If you would want to make a comment, make sure it is constructive. However, you just provide your judgment,” she remarked.

In addition to this, the actress Navya Nanda said, “They won’t have the courage,” in reference to the fact that the majority of these social media trolls would not even dare speak if they sat in front of Jaya. She said, “If you are truly brave, then speak up about real problems and show your face.”

For those who don’t know, Navya Nanda launched her podcast, “What the Hell, Navya,” on YouTube in 2002. She discusses the problems women in society confront in her podcast with mom Shweta and grandma Jaya Bachchan. You may watch the episodes on Navya’s YouTube channel. Bumble India provided support for the podcast, which was produced by IVM Podcasts.

Agastya Nanda, the actor behind The Archies, recently graced Navya’s podcast and discussed his spiritual beliefs. He said, “When I started acting and did my first film, I was like, ‘I don’t know what I’m going to do, if I’m going to do well, if people are going to like me, if they’ll think I’m bad.” There are a tonne of things. After giving it my all, I said to God, “I leave it up to you.” I have to continue to have confidence in something higher. Whoever you want to believe in—be it energy or God—. It feels good to simply let go of that load.
