Who
would
have
thought
that
Amitabh
Bachchan's
granddaughter
Navya
Naveli
Nanda
will
be
in
the
headlines,
but
not
owing
to
her
debut
or
film
projects,
but
as
a
co-founder
of
her
own
organisation?
For
the
unversed,
Big
B's
granddaughter
Navya
is
the
co-founder
of
Aara
Health,
a
healthcare
company
focused
on
women,
and
recently,
she
also
launched
Project
Naveli-
an
initiative
dedicated
to
building
gender
equality
in
India.
In
her
recent
tete-a-tete
with
a
media
portal,
when
Navya
was
asked
why
she
felt
that
healthcare
ought
to
be
a
part
of
the
gender
inequality
debate,
she
gave
an
example
of
her
own
family
to
prove
her
point.
She
said
that
she
thinks
before
even
understanding
the
access
to
healthcare,
it
is
important
to
understand
how
healthcare
is
viewed
by
women
in
general.
Women
inherently
prioritize
the
health
and
well
being
of
their
family
over
themselves.
She
further
asserted,
"I
have
seen
that
happen
at
my
own
home
with
my
grandmother
and
my
mother.
They
are
the
sole
caregivers.
Because
of
that,
they
are
always
taking
care
of
the
family,
the
husband
and
the
children.
I
don't
think
their
own
health,
mental
or
physical
is
a
priority."
"That
stems
from
the
gender
roles
we
force
as
a
society
and
that's
where
the
patriarchy
and
misogyny
comes
in
where
men
have
always
been
the
head
of
the
family
and
breadwinners,
and
the
woman
the
caretaker.
That,
I
think,
has
caused
a
big
disparity
in
terms
of
how
women
even
look
at
health
and
prioritize
their
own
well
being," added
Navya.
Well,
being
an
ambitious
young
girl,
Navya
is
surely
setting
the
right
example
for
the
youngsters.
