Shweta Bachchan Nanda has penned a emotional open letter to the media in DNA, where she questioned their right to publish pictures of her daughter Navya Naveli Nanda with sensational headlines. A few excerpts below...


Absolutely normal teenage behaviour
"She is a teenager, and as most young teens are wont to do, she likes to dress up, hang out with her friends, pose for pictures and yes, go out to parties (she has a deadline and is always home well before it is over). If she finds herself on a beach, she will wear beach-appropriate attire — namely, a swimsuit — as would any young girl anywhere."


She's someone's child
"My daughter Navya likes reading, the Kardashians, rajma chawal, curling up next to her Naani while watching TV, teasing her brother and counselling her friends when their hearts are broken. Do the adults who run these sites even know how invasive and inappropriate what they are doing, is? And would they like it if this happened to their children?"

Can she have her private life back?
"But I can write about it in the hope that the people peddling this nonsense have some shame or at least accountability, though I highly doubt they will."
