The superstar continued, "Navya Ji humari tech supporter hain. Yaani humari koi bhi mechanical ka problem ho, tech problem ho, mobile mein problem ho, social media problem ho, usko hum bulate hain. 2-3 baje raat ko bhi hum unko bolenge (Navya ji is my tech supporter. That means if I have any mechanical problem, tech problem, mobile issue or social media issue- I call her even at 2 or 3 AM in the night)."
Navya Naveli Nanda complained, "Time ka koi system nahin hai ghar pe. Lekin 2-3 baje koi bhi so raha hota hai na. 2-3 baje aap phone lagate hain, main darr jaati hoon, neend se uthkar aawaz aapki sunayi deti hai (There's no concept of time at home. But you know, people are usually asleep at 2 or 3 AM at night. And then you call me I wake up scared hearing your voice)."
She added, "Aur main bhaag ke aati hoon aapke pass. Study mein aap baithe hain, apne gown, chappal, topi pehen ke." She then praised her grandfather for wearing a blazer suit as she shared that most of the time Big B is in gown at home."

When Amitabh Bachchan opened up about 'Hera Pheri' actor Akshay Kumar's pranks on film sets: "He's very good at sleight of hand..."
Akshay Kumar , one of the proficient actors in Bollywood, has been a witty prankster in the industry, who leaves no stone unturned when it comes to execution. While some crew members had their senses sharpened, some veteran cast members were in the dark, leading to the chaos on the film set. Amitabh Bachchan opens up about being alert around Akshay Kumar In a 2005 conversation with Rediff, Amitabh Bachchan opened up about how Akshay Kumar would be on the sets, keeping the crew on their toes at all times. When the 'Don' actor was promoting his then-upcoming film 'Waqt: The Race Against Time,' he revealed that all of them used to keep their valuables away from Akshay Kumar. 'Akshay is a very good actor, and, along with that, he's also a bit of a shrewd rascal. He's very good at sleight of hand, so when you shake hands with him, often you'll see that your watch or your rings go missing! You wouldn't even know it,' Bachchan said, before adding, 'So when we (the rest of us) go on the sets, we keep our valuables – rings, wristwatch, necklace – aside before starting the shoot. He's a jolly, happy-go-lucky fellow, given to a lot of jokes. ' Akshay Kumar recalls the film being close to him... In another interview, Akshay Kumar opened up about how the film is close to his heart during a conversation with Subhash K. Jha during the film's release, according to News24. 'Waqt: The Race Against Time' marked the first film that Kumar distributed in Mumbai, showing faith in Vipul Shah's direction. 'I've never done a film that has affected me so much. Five years ago, while I was shooting for Jaanwar, my father was dying,' he said. 'I played a father in the movie, and I cried throughout the filming. In Waqt, I play the son while Amitji plays my father. Again, I felt I was re-living the emotions connected with my dad,' Kumar added.
