Expressing her worries, Jaya Bachchan pointed out how this constant need for validation, whether it’s about looks or opinions, is driving up stress levels among the youth.

For Jaya, the culprit behind this rising anxiety epidemic is the overwhelming influx of information bombarding young minds. From unrealistic beauty standards to ever-changing lifestyle trends, the barrage of content on the internet is taking a toll on mental health.

However, not everyone in the conversation shared the same perspective. Jaya’s daughter, Shweta Bachchan Nanda, chimed in, suggesting that anxiety has always existed but has become more visible in today’s society due to increased awareness and discussion surrounding mental health issues.
Shweta acknowledged the immense pressure that young people face in today’s fast-paced world, with information overload contributing to their anxiety. She highlighted the importance of acknowledging and addressing these mental health concerns, emphasizing that even she and her mother experience bouts of anxiety from time to time.
The candid exchange between Jaya Bachchan, Navya Naveli Nanda, and Shweta Bachchan Nanda sheds light on the complex relationship between the internet, validation, and mental health. It serves as a reminder for both younger and older generations to prioritize self-care and seek support when needed in navigating the challenges of modern life.
