Jaya Bachchan says ‘educated women also have double standards’  

On the podcast, Navya said that she would like to see more coverage of women in sports. She further added that how sons should be raised just like people raise their daughters. Jaya Bachchan interrupted and said that it’s sad to see educated women also have double standards, and that women are their own enemies. “Educated women also have double standards, which is so sad. I want to say it sometimes but do not feel good about saying it, but women are their own enemies,” she said. She added, however, that raising up the kids is not just a mother’s, but also the father’s responsibility.
