Javed Akhtar had played a major role in some of the biggest hits of Amitabh Bachchan, establishing him as an ‘Angry Young Man’ and more. Big B went on to work with the veteran-lyricist's family’s second generation, Farhan Akhtar, and his son Abhishek Bachchan too worked with Farhan’s production house. Though not yet on the professional front, now even the third generation of the Bachchan family is bonding with the Akhtars. Amitabh Bachchan’s grandchildren Navya Naveli Nanda and Agastya Nanda recently spent some time with Zoya Akhtar. The trio met in the United States of America, and the youngster’s mother Shweta Bachchan thanked the filmmaker for treating them. However, she had a typical mother-like response too, asking if her kids had behaved themselves.

The director called the youngsters ‘Hansel and Gretel’, a reference to the 19th century classic's sibling duo. She captioned the post, “Hansel and Gretel #thenandas #portrait #chipsoftheoldblock #happypuppies #nightoutinnyc @navyananda @agastya.nanda.”Shweta Bachchan Nanda was pleased but at the same time, concerned. She wrote, “Hahaha Hansel & Gretel love it. Thank you for feeding them. Hope they behaved ♥️”

Most recently, she was linked with Malaal star Meezaan Jaaferi, son of Jaaved Jaaferi’s son. Agastya, on the other hand, completed his graduation in May this year.
