Jaya Bachchan says trolls lack courage to confront her in person: ‘If you are actually brave…’

The upcoming episode of ‘What The Hell Navya’ promises to be an insightful and engaging discussion, as Navya Naveli Nanda delves into the topic of social media trolling with her mother, Shweta Bachchan, and grandmother, Jaya Bachchan.

In a newly released promo, viewers got a glimpse of the conversation as Jaya Bachchan took a bold stance against trolls. The veteran actress fearlessly challenged those who engage in online abuse, urging them to confront her in person if they truly had the courage to stand by their words.

‘If you want to comment, then comment positively. But no, you just give your verdict,’ Jaya said in the promo.

When Navya Nanda mentioned that most of these social media trolls might not even dare to speak if they sit in front of Jaya, the actor added, ‘They won’t have the courage.’

Navya and Shweta's laughter ensued, with Navya chiming in, 'With you, definitely not.' Later in the promo, Jaya issued a direct challenge to trolls, urging them to focus their energy on discussing real issues. 'If you are actually brave, then comment on actual issues and show your face,' she asserted firmly.
