Agastya and Navya also disclosed how their mother, Shweta, was known for being the “worst crier” in the family. Reflecting on Agastya's response to her tears, Shweta remarked, “He’s merciless to me.”

Agastya addressed his sister, saying, “No, because you and mom have the same trait. If someone’s talking to you and they try to get a point across, you guys will start crying.”

Navya explained that their tears often stemmed from frustration. However, Agastya retorted, “So, instead of talking about the point, we have to fix your emotions now. We can't talk about the issue anymore.”

When asked if she cried when frustrated, Jaya ji replied, "No, I get angry when I'm frustrated."
