Shweta Bachchan, daughter of Bollywood icons Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan, is celebrating her 51st birthday today, March 17, 2025. Marking the special occasion, her daughter, Navya Naveli Nanda, took to social media to shower her mom with love.
Navya shared an unseen throwback picture on her Instagram Stories, featuring a tender mother-daughter moment. In the snapshot, Shweta is seen holding a young Navya in her arms, both twinning in white winter outfits. The picture, seemingly from a past birthday celebration, also featured colourful balloons with “Happy Birthday” written on them. Alongside the nostalgic image, Navya kept her wish simple yet heartfelt, writing, “Happy Birthday Mom.”
Shweta Bachchan tied the knot with UK-based businessman Nikhil Nanda in 1997. The couple welcomed their daughter, Navya Naveli Nanda, the same year, followed by their son, Agastya Nanda, in 2000.
Despite hailing from a prominent film family, Navya chose a different path, following in her father’s footsteps as a businesswoman. A graduate of Fordham University, she is the founder of Project Naveli, an initiative aimed at addressing gender inequality in India, and the co-founder of Aara Health, a women-centric health technology startup.
In addition to her outstanding accomplishments, Navya recently enrolled in the famous Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad for a Blended Post Graduate Programme in MBA.
Shweta, on the other hand, is an author by profession. She launched her debut novel titled Paradise Towers back in 2018. She has also written the forewords for Aishwarya Rajinikanth’s 2016 book Standing on an Apple Box: The Story of a Girl among the Stars and Rukhsana Eisa’s book The Golden Code: Mastering the Art of Social Success.
