Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda’s podcast What the Hell Navya‘s latest episode witnessed Jaya Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan opening up about their idea of love. The trio also discussed modern relationships and more.
Jaya shared her take on why physical attraction is so important and also said that she has no objection if Navya decides to have a child out of wedlock. She said that she looks at it ‘very clinically’.
The Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham actress said, “People will find it objectionable coming from me but physical attraction and compatibility are also very important. Our times we couldn’t experiment but today the generation does and why shouldn’t they? Because that also is responsible for a long-lasting relationship. If there isn’t a physical relationship it’s not going to last very long. You can’t be lasting on love and fresh air and adjustment, I feel. It’s very very important.”
Jaya went on to candidly speak about how her generation could not even think about it. She then gave a piece of advice to Navya’s generation. Jaya said, “I’m looking at it very clinically. Since there’s a lack of that emotion, the romance today…I think you should marry your best friend. You should have a good friend, you should discuss and say, ‘Maybe I’d like to have a child with you because I like you, I think you’re nice, so let’s get married because that’s what society’s saying’.”
“I have no problem if you have a child without a marriage also, I really don’t have a problem,” she told Navya.
In the previous episode, the trio was seen talking about parenting, career, financial freedom and more.
