Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda recently opened up about her struggle with anxiety and shared that she has been taking therapy. The diva talked about her battle as a part of mental health awareness with her organisation Aara Health. Navya had started Aara Health soon after she graduated from college this year. In a conversation with the other co-founders of the organisation, Navya said that earlier she wasn't comfortable talking about going to therapy.

She said, "It was something new for me as well. I wanted to kind of experience it myself before talking about it. Obviously, my family knows that I am in therapy but I don’t think any of my friends do. I don’t know if would still go and tell them." Commenting on the post, Navya's mother Shweta Bachchan Nanda wrote, "Brave."Navya even revealed that reality shows like Indian Matchmaking help her de-stress. Earlier, sharing on social media, the Aara Health page talked about its mission which is to encourage women to make empowered and educated health choices. Navya has started the new venture with three more ladies named Ahilya Mehta, Mallika Sahney and Pragya Saboo. Navya graduated from college in New York in May this year but she could not have a graduation party due to the COVID19 pandemic. Big B shared how they celebrated Navya's big day at his Jalsa home since the graduation ceremony has been stalled.
