Speaking about One stop Centre, Amitabh Bachchan said, "I want to tell you something personal. My granddaughter (Navya Naveli Nanda), she does all this social work on her own. Her focus is on this. She is not looking for a government job instead she is doing her individual service. She has made an organisation to help women with her hard-earned money. She makes a home for them, takes care of their food, provides them with shelter and gives counselling to them. This is very nice."
