Ernakulam: During her opening speech at the State CBSE School Arts Festival in Ernakulam Kaladi, actress Navya Nair shared that she had tried to delete a video of her that captured a moment of distress, but it was unsuccessful. The video features the actress in tears during a school art festival.
Navya Nair clarified that the emotional incident wasn’t about not receiving a prize but rather stemmed from her disappointment at receiving a lower grade while competing in the school arts festival. Recounting the scene, she disclosed that, as a fifteen-year-old girl, she couldn’t hold back her tears upon receiving a B grade.
In her address, she mentioned that, “owing to a lack of knowledge or mental distress, I couldn’t update about the performances of my fellow participants. I was not aware of the performance of the other children during the event after being distressed.
Navya Nair’s message extended beyond the personal incident, emphasising that the life of those passionate about art should not be defined by the success or marks obtained in a single day’s performance.
