When asked about her best friend, Jaya affectionately named Amitabh Bachchan as her closest confidant. She emphasized the importance of honesty in every relationship, expressing that she shares everything with her husband without hesitation. Jaya also extended her friendship to Navya, despite acknowledging that there might be certain things Navya feels uncomfortable sharing with her.
Acknowledging the limitations of familial relationships, Jaya revealed the significance of having friends outside the industry, particularly those she made during her college years. These friends serve as her support system, providing a different kind of comfort and understanding. Navya chimed in, highlighting the lighthearted dynamic she observes between her grandmother and her friends, who tease and joke with her in a way that family members might not. Jaya echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the value of friends who keep one grounded, even joking about teasing assistant directors on set.

Shweta Bachchan also expressed her perspective on friendship, noting a perceived lack of loyalty among the younger generation. She observed a trend of forming and ending friendships quickly, attributing it to a reluctance to compromise. Additionally, she questioned the blurring of boundaries between parents and their children’s friends.
Navya Nanda on the other hand offered a different perspective, acknowledging the evolving nature of friendships based on life stages and ambitions. She reflected on her changing priorities, from seeking acceptance from popular peers in school to valuing friendships with individuals who share similar goals and motivations.
