In a recent interview, Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter, Navya Naveli Nanda, opened up about her life at IIM Ahmedabad and shared how she spends her weekends.
Navya Naveli Nanda is one of the few celebrity children in India, who always remain in the headlines despite not being a part of the entertainment industry. For the uninitiated, Navya Nanda is the daughter of Shweta Bachchan Nanda and Nikhil Nanda. While her maternal grandfather is Bollywood icon, Amitabh Bachchan, Navya's paternal grandfather is the renowned business tycoon, Rajan Nanda. It was in February 1997 when Navya's parents, Shweta and Nikhil got married, and on December 6, 1997, she was born. Navya also has a sibling named, Agastya Nanda, who made his acting debut in Bollywood with the film, The Archies.
However, unlike Agastya Nanda, who is following in the footsteps of his maternal grandfather, Amitabh Bachchan, Navya Naveli Nanda isn't interested in working in films. Recently, in conversation with India Today, Navya opened up about her life at IIM Ahmedabad and busted all the myths about her oh-so-happening life just because she comes from a family of superstars. The youngster clearly stated that she attends classes on Saturdays from 6 pm to 10 pm and prefers to study instead of going out to parties and socialising with people. She said:
"I have classes from 6 pm to 10 pm on Saturdays. I stay home. I've always loved learning. I think its never too late for learning."
Further, in the same interview, Navya Naveli Nanda also added that she is enjoying her life as an active student at IIM Ahmedabad. Opening up more about her life at the prestigious institute from where she is doing an MBA, Navya shared that she always sits in the front row and never skips a chance to participate in discussions. Talking about her classmates, Navya revealed that because all the students are from different cities and backgrounds, it's exciting to interact with and learn from them. Navya admitted that her time at IIM Ahmedabad will surely help her grow as a person both on the personal and professional front.
When Navya Naveli Nanda was asked about her aspirations and what goals she would try to accomplish in the near future, she revealed that she had always wanted to be an entrepreneur. She said she's grateful to have the opportunity to study in one of India's biggest institutes, IIM Ahmedabad, which is filled with so many experienced and expert professors.
During the same interview, Navya Naveli Nanda was asked about the possibility of her decision not to work in films changing in the future. In response to the question, Navya clearly stated that right from the beginning, she had decided not to work in films ever. She added that despite coming from a family of film stars, acting is something that never excited her. For the uninitiated, Navya Naveli Nanda enrolled in IIM Ahmedabad's popular two-year MBA course, Blended Post Graduate Programme (BPGP), which is specially designed for entrepreneurs and working professionals.
