Navya Naveli Nanda talks to The Quint about her career so far, working in social impact through initiatives like Project Naveli, her podcast with Jaya Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan Nanda, providing legal aid to women among other things and much more.

"I come from a lot of privilege. For me to be able to do what I did at 21, to wake and say 'I want to start a business' is not something a lot of people get to do."

Navya goes on to talk about how people see her and think she's 'too young' to talk about some of the causes she advocates for.

Speaking about the importance of working with legal awareness, Navya says, "Everyone should have knowledge of their legal rights and their basic human rights. We offer free legal services to women."

"Whether it's a sexual harassment case or property rights, we have information free-or-cost. I think financial barriers are a big reason as to why women especially don't take cases forward. We try to remove that barrier."
