Big B's granddaughter Navya Naveli responds to a troll who asked "What does Shweta Bachchan do?"

Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda hit out at a troll, who dared to comment on her mother Shweta Bachchan's profession.

Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda hit out at a troll, who dared to comment on her mother Shweta Bachchan's profession.

In an interview recently, Navya opened up about her new venture - Project Naveli - which aims to empower women by addressing the issue of gender inequality in India.

On Instagram, a magazine shared a snippet of Navya's interview, in which she says: "I've grown up around working women in my family-my grandmother, my mother, my bua-it's all I've known. To bring that change, you have to start with education and financial independence," Commenting on the post, a user appeared to insinuate that Navya's mother Shweta Bachchan isn't an example of a "working woman" and asked: "What work does her mother do? LOL."

Adding a smiley, Navya Naveli responded to the troll with a list of titles for Shweta Bachchan and wrote: "She's an author, writer, designer, wife and mother."

Calling out the troll in a separate Instagram story, Navya added: "Being a mother and wife is a full-time job. Please don't discredit women who are housemakers. Their role is so crucial in the upbringing of a generation that will hopefully support their contribution instead of tearing it down."

Shweta Bachchan Nanda, who is married to businessman Nikhil Nanda, is a published author - her book Paradise Towers released in 2018 on Amitabh Bachchan's birthday. Shweta also launched a designer label in collaboration with designer Monisha Jaising that year - Navya modelled for her mom's collection.
