Shweta Bachchan responded to the hoopla surrounding her daughter Navya Naveli Nanda's acting debut. Read on to learn what she said.

Ever since Shweta Bachchan’s son Agastya Nanda made his acting debut in The Archies, there has been growing buzz about her daughter, Navya Naveli Nanda, potentially following in his footsteps. However, Shweta has dispelled all such speculation, asserting that Bollywood is not the right place for Navya. Despite the constant media attention and public curiosity surrounding Navya's potential entry into the film industry, her mother has made it clear that Navya's aspirations lie elsewhere, effectively putting an end to the rumors of another Bachchan family member joining the film industry.

During a recent event, Shweta reacted to rumours around her daughter’s acting debut, with a firm no. She expressed her views when she joined an event for podcasters in Mumbai to represent her daughter.

“I am here to represent my daughter, and I am very excited for her and proud of her. I am thrilled to be here to collect the award on her behalf,” Shweta remarked while accepting the Best Female Podcaster Award for her podcast. What the hell, Navya!

She went on to talk about her daughter's talent, sharing, “I think it is wonderful, it is a great way of reaching out to people. You can carry it wherever you go, you can listen to it on a train or a bus. I think it is a fantastic and wonderful medium of getting your word across."

Shweta was also asked about Navya’s plan to enter Bollywood. To which, she said, “I think you are very well acquainted with the work Navya does and she has her hands full. I don't think Bollywood is the way to go for her.”’

Navya and Agastya are Amitabh Bachchan’s grandchildren and Raj Kapoor’s great grandchildren.
