Navya Naveli Nanda, the granddaughter of acclaimed Bollywood actors, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan, hosts a unique podcast named What The Hell, Navya. Her podcast features the three generations of women in the Bachchan family—Jaya Bachchan, Shweta Bachchan Nanda, and Navya. During the episodes, the trio talks about various facets of their lives. Moreover, in the latest episode, titled 'Bold Not Out', which aired on March 28, 2024, the trio shared their thoughts on the age vs. experience debate.
During the conversation, Navya talked about how people often scrutinise the younger generation for their lack of experience. She further divulged how younger people want to do everything all at once, and she took her own example to put forward her point. Navya said that she wants to delve into various pursuits, but people ask her otherwise. In her words:

"My generation is into so many things. We throw ourselves into everything. Like I do a hundred things, and a lot of people are like do slowly slowly, but I feel like there is so much I want to say and do and fix, but I don’t have enough time to do it.”

Moreover, the veteran actress asked the younger generation to mute the noises around them and stand firm on their choices. Jaya Bachchan also said that she fully resonates with Navya's point of view and accepts that she likes to be with the younger generation more than her own friends. Talking more about it, the actress shared:
"I identify with it a 100 percent. I was like this. I wanted to do so much. The best compliment that I can give to the younger generation is – I love my friends, I enjoy spending time with them but I enjoy spending time with the younger generation a lot more. I love sitting and listening to them and I love seeing them interact. It’s very stimulating for me."
Further in the conversation, Navya said that, unlike her nani, she prefers to strike up a conversation with the older generation. She said that both her brother, Agastya and herself love to sit with Jaya Bachchan's friends and just hear them talk. She said:
"I like doing the opposite. I like sitting with like when your friends, Agastya (Nanda) and me love to sit with them and just hear them talk. I'm quite intrigued by, like, they have a very different perspective on life, and I find that quite interesting. I might completely disagree with them, but I still want to know why they're thinking that way or why they feel that way, and I find that very interesting."

Towards the end of their conversation, Navya posed a fun question to her nani and mother. If they were given a chance to go back to their twenties, would they choose to remove certain experiences from their lives or relive some moments? To this, Jaya Bachchan instantly said that she would want to be born today, saying that there are more challenges at present. On the other hand, Shweta said she would educate herself more.
