Sorry I can’t get past that

She is 48. I think she said that as an example like how someone in the 40s wouldn't feel the same as a 24 year old. I don't think she's dumb enough to call herself 44 when there's google around. 😆

Hardship can have many forms...one shouldn't understimate emotional hardship.

Couldn't read the article because I would have to agree to the newspaper's conditions (which I won't do).

I have heard their podcast and interviews and I must say Shweta is harsh towards Navya, openly puts her down, mocks, gaslights her or rates Agastya better than her publicly or says she is harsher on her because Navya is a girl.

Jaya also often gangs up against Navya or makes ageist remarks or tells her that her gender activist videos should not get into male bashing though Navya has never said anything against men in videos.

Jaya mocks Shweta too.

I think mothers are harsher towards their daughters and their podcasts only reek of internalised misogyny.

Navya often cowers down or lowers her tone when Jaya or Shweta shout louder or mock her or counter her harshly or contradict her in a dismissive manner.

The podcasts have comments underneath about how Shweta puts down Navya so openly.

Both are right in their own way.

I didn’t watch the video. I closed the link after I read the article say she is 44

Both are right

Shewtha more right - life looks rosy at 24 years not 48 years

Shwetha may be born rich married rich that does not mean she had great life

Is money and fame everything - that why do rich ppl commt suicide they have everything

Shwetha too has taken lifes punches - married too young by parents, could not stdy or do what she wanted, saddled with kids and family at 21, by 25 she had 2 kids. She had a tough life too in one way.. She was not given freedom or choice by family or hubby etc she just followed orders of elders in life. And yet is away from hubby now for whatever reasons. Is that not tough life to keep following first parents orders than hubby orders and now kids do not really listen to you.

You feel worthless after doing so much family no achievements no big degrees no job achievements nothing much that you desired to do as everyone just ordered and stomped all over you thats shwetha bachchan. Life is a golden cage for Shetha so lets not dismiss her as being rich and never seen tough life etc she has seen her brother getting special preference by parents than hubby dominating her now kids will dominate her next. May be thats why shes a bit jealous at navya all mothers are a bit jealous of daughters as next gen has better life than them and claim to know more than moms. Every father is a bit more jealous of sons too as they think next gen had a easier life. Please read psychology to know about it.

I only do not like that Shwetha did not encourage navya as much as her son. May be navya was better suited to movies than son. I have read navya wanted to be in movies. May be Shwetha should have let navya be what she wanted to be in movies. Or may be the orders are from her parents but through her shoulders to let navya take non film profession. Who knows? So may be Shwetah is the scape goat to look bad in front of her kid navya while decision is of others. Who knows? We do not know anything. Lets not forget financially first shwetha was at mercy of parents than hubby now back to parents. So she has no real rights to decide what her kids can or cannot do. In india 80% women have no rights to decide their kids future or career a grandparent or husband etc does or kid itself does you just sponsor decision. That is why shwetha told navya you have not been punched by life yet.

Who knows what Shweta went through? Even a hubby constantly comparing a wife to other women can take a toll. He wouldn't even have to say anything. Sleeping around will do that for him. Unless it's a very self-assured woman, she will be left wondering what's wrong with her. It's human nature.

Hardship is both relative and individual.

For someone who has lived on a say, a teacher's salary, retirement might seem tight even if they're not starving.

Karisma Kapoor wouldn't have known a moment's financial hardship, but her hubby was supposedly abusive and wanted her to sleep with other men. Would anyone deny that was hardship?

That’s a valid point, generally speaking.

However, I am personally comfortable saying Shweta’s marriage failing probably wasn’t due to any major vices either side had. Nothing moves faster in Bollywood than gossip and I’m sure we would have heard something had Nikhil Nanda been abusive, a cheater, had addiction issues etc. Do I know this for a fact? Absolutely not!! But again, based on my observations I’m speculating that her marriage ended simply because they grew apart. Was this hard on Shweta? I’m sure it was. Even though she seems to be on very good terms with her husband and in laws, and her parents and brother dote on her, fact is her marriage failed. That has gotta suck no matter what. Add to it all the attempts she’s had on trying to start a career and failed. Yes I’m sure emotionally she’s had a lot to take and then go out in public and smile. But going back to my original point, Shweta was born rich, married rich, is rich now, and will die rich. In fairytales money doesn’t buy happiness. In real life money makes a huge difference in determining how every aspect of your life shapes up and how we move forward, including heartbreak and marriages failing. Specially marriages failing. I can almost guarantee that Shweta’s separation went hell of a lot smoother (for her at least) than every middle class woman trying to get out of their marriage, because money and finances weren’t an issue for her. When her book failed or when her clothing line failed I’m sure it sucked emotionally, and I’m not undermining that at all. But she never had to worry about keeping a roof over her head or feeding her kids etc. Hell, she didn’t even have to worry about where her next designer shoes or her next trip to Paris would come from.

Hardship is relative, but up to an extent. Again, I’m not undermining all the emotional pain Shweta goes through. It cannot be easy to be the only one in her immediate and extended family who’s failed at everything she’s tried (before anyone mentions Abhishek, he’s making a comeback of sorts on OTT and his sports teams are doing great). Add to it her parents benevolent misogyny that they don’t even hide much. But personally I wouldn’t say she’s been through hardship, mainly because of her massive financial safety net. I guess I’m giving the word hardship and more tangible angle if you will.

P.S. All of this is assuming her emotional issues are not connected to any clinical diagnosis.

Wasn’t she rumoured to have an affair with Hrithik? I think she’s doing just fine.

Arent they all

Changing sanitary napkins in public? Yikes
