Navya Naveli Nanda replying why she chose a different path while hailing from a family of actors, she said my father is in business, my passion lies in business. So, I chose this path. I do enjoy what I do. I was never interested in the film world.
 
I know I come from a privileged background and I take it with lot of responsibility, she said
 
Speaking about menstruation stigma Navya said the discrimination faced by people who menstruate is unfair. There is nothing wrong in it and one must talk about it openly.
 
When asked about why women neglect their mental health, the young entrepreneur Navya said we give a lot of importance to our body by the same care and concern is shown for mental health.

On speaking about why not many women choose legal root to find a solution for conflict resolution during the separation, in case of tape, Mansi said victim shaming is very sad. It is also because of lack of legal effectiveness. Irrespective of the problems one faces, they must stand for their rights. Faster justice will help people come forward to take legal root for conflict resolution.
