In a recent interview to ETimes, Navya opened up about coming from “privileged” background and how it played a role in her career. Navya joined her father Nikhil Nanda’s business at 21.
A“My upbringing has shaped who I am, like it does for everyone,” Navya said in the interview. “When we talk about being an entrepreneur at 21, I owe a lot of that to the privilege and where I come from. A lot of opportunities that I got are because of my privileged background, and I hope in my own way and through my hard work, I can create those opportunities for myself one day. I am very grateful for everything I have been given. I think I’ve more than I deserve at times, so for me, it is important to see how I can turn around those opportunities and resources I have available, and share those with others and maximise it.”
