Jaya Bachchan, in a recent episode of Navya Nanda's What The Hell Navya Season Two, discussed the impact of the internet on today's youth, attributing it to anxiety attacks. The episode, titled Swipe Scroll Snap, featured Navya, her mother Shweta Nanda, and her grandmother Jaya Bachchan.
Jaya highlighted how the internet offers a sense of validation for young people, which can lead to stress and anxiety. She noted, "You don’t think you are stressed but you are. We hadn’t heard of an anxiety attack when we were kids. Let alone our childhood, we never heard it in our midlife also. Where does this come from? This comes because you are constantly being fed information. This comes from ‘how does this girl look? How is she getting her nails, makeup?’ Anxiety comes from this. Too much information.” Shweta disagreed, suggesting that anxiety has always been present but is more identifiable in modern times.
Jaya also shared her experience shopping online, expressing dissatisfaction with a product she received. She acknowledged the convenience of technological progress but emphasized its limitations. She commented, “This is what technology does. Technology takes you up, but ultimately it cannot become a human. It will have a rippling effect and then people will say, ‘This is not good. Let’s go back to how things were.'”
In the same episode, Shweta mentioned her preference for online shopping to avoid queues, to which Jaya humorously responded that she had never had to stand in line.
