Navya had expressed the sense of pride she felt in being the first woman in her family to take the lead in the family business. In her interview with the Vogue, Navya had said:

“I would be the fourth generation of the family taking the lead—and the first woman. It is a great sense of pride for me to be carrying forward this incredible legacy left behind by my great-grandfather HP Nanda.”
