Indra Nooyi Gushes Over Navya Naveli Nanda's Business Acumen; Says She Had No Idea She Was Amitabh Bachchan's Granddaughter When She Mentored Her
Indra Nooyi didn't know Navya Naveli Nanda was Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter when she mentored her.
Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda is one of the most popular star kids of Bollywood. The new-gen star kid has made it clear that she has no interest in joining the film industry. And she is carving a niche for herself in the business sector. She was even mentored by renowned business executive and former CEO, PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi. In an interview now, Indra Nooyi has revealed that she was very impressed with Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter when she mentored her. She added she had no idea who she was and just saw her as an extraordinary business person.
In an interaction with Mojo Story, Indra Nooyi said, "Navya, I've got to tell you, when I agreed to mentor these four girls who were running Aara Health, their proposition was a terrific proposition. And it's a proposition that suited the Indian zeitgeist... I just loved what the four were doing; dedicated, hard-working."
She added, "What I loved is after every meeting, writing action items, and following up, coming back to me about the progress they've made. I had no idea who Navya Naveli Nanda was when I was mentoring her. I just saw her as this extraordinary businessperson, but very young. And I'm thinking to myself, 'I wish I had maturity when I was her age'. I didn't."
