Real empowerment comes in owning your choices and the decisions you make: Navya Nanda #IndiaNEWS #Other News
By Tanya BanonNew Delhi, July 28 (IANSlife) Navya Nanda will be an integral voice for LOreal Paris initiatives and a key spokesperson in the brands I Know My Worth Campaign. The campaign is based on the internationally acclaimed Lessons of Worth campaign and includes a series of reflective films encouraging women to silence their inner critic and recognise their worth. It features inspiring women leaders in their respective fields who share their incredible stories of self-worth as part of a series of inspirational testimonials, elucidating the brands historic affirmation Youre Worth It.
Navya Nanda, a young entrepreneur, businesswoman, and social activist, and granddaughter to the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, is an inspiring icon for todays generation as a young woman entrepreneur working to change the landscape for women in India through her own initiatives such as Project Naveli. The brand believes that Navya embodies its core values and cause initiatives as an advocate for womens empowerment, gender equality, and social justice for a more inclusive world. The distinguished group includes Navya Nanda, Aditi Rao Hydari, Mithali Raj, and Dr. Jaishree Sharad.
IANSlife caught up with Navya to talk about her new role as a role model to young women in the country.
Read Excerpts:
How does it feel to be chosen as the face of the brand in spite of opting out of the film industry?
Navya: It feels great, you know I feel that growing up you dont see a lot of women in campaigns who are not celebrities or actresses, I think its really nice of LOreal to choose people who are industry outsiders. Along with me there is Mithali Raj, Captain of the Indian Womens cricket team, and Dr. Jaishree Sharad who is a cosmetologist, so it gives young girls growing up different professions to aspire to and that a very positive thing. I am really grateful they picked me to be a part of this campaign.
Empowerment means a lot of things to a lot of people, what does it mean to you?
Navya: Empowerment to me means being able to make your own choices, without fear of society or what anybody else will think or say. Typically when we talk about women empowerment we say she is a strong woman, she is a CEO or she is running a business but women empowerment can also be making a choice to be a housewife or a homemaker and those are equally important roles that we play. I think real empowerment comes in owning your choices and the decisions you make.
In context of I Know My Worth campaign, do you feel women in India are getting more confident about their own self-worth and are not afraid to own it?
Navya: Yes, absolutely and I will give the credit to women themselves for realising that they dont need to be bother about what anybody will say, and I think the younger women specially, those my age are a lot more stronger, a lot more rational, a lot more opinionated, which I think are all great things.
