In an exclusive conversation with NDTV's Abira Dhar, Navya Naveli Nanda, the granddaughter of legendary actors Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan, talked about her Nani's Style Files” and praised Jaya Bachchan's exquisite sarees. During the chat, the young entrepreneur also shed light on the differences in fashion approaches between herself, her mother Shweta Bachchan, and her grandmother Jaya Bachchan celebrating their individual styles on her podcast, What The Hell Navya Season 2. Navya expressed, “It's really interesting also because we three have really individual styles. Nani has her beautiful sarees and kurtas. I am always in jeans and a T-shirt. And then, mom is kind of in the middle between the two. It's nice to see that we were able to express our personalities through the clothes that we wear as well on the show.” Watch the full interview at the link below:

Like Navya Naveli Nanda, thousands are fans of Jaya Bachchan's sartorial picks on the show and love her candid style. Navya was quick to mention that she thinks her "nani is the real star of the show." While Jaya Bachchan pulls off Indo-Western ensembles and ethnic looks with equal elan, the veteran actress exudes unmatched elegance in a saree. A case in point is the indigo blue and white saree that Jaya styled to perfection. The saree featured floral designs in white all over its length, only to open into a blue and white chequered pattern pallu. She paired it with a short kurta with a high neckline and dainty jewellery in pearl and silver. She left her hair partly open and opted for a no-makeup look.
Similarly, Jaya Bachchan also looked radiant in a pastel pistachio hue Chanderi kurta with a matching salwar and dupatta. The ensemble featured gota patti detailing along with piping in blue, orange and pink, adding pops of colour. She styled the outfit with thin, layered necklaces, drop earrings, matching rings and a watch.
