"She couldn't go .. we too had all planned to be together with her on this important occasion .. but she though wanted to wear that Graduation gown and cap .. so staff stitched her an impromptu gown and cap .. and she wore it and celebrated at home in Jalsa. So proud of you Navya... God bless .. such a positive and happy attitude. Love you," Big B wrote.
The veteran superstar is very close to all his grandchildren and is often seen uploading throwback pictures of his family in his social media handle. In an interview earlier, the actor also claimed that he likes taking advantage of his authoritative post and loves to spoil his grandchildren. Due to this, their parents are also not in the position to oppose him!
Along with the post, he shared a video in which Navya is seen wearing a home-made graduation gown and cap.
Earlier in the day, Navya's mother Shweta Bachchan too took to social media to wish her.
