As we complete almost four weeks of lockdown what are your thoughts?
It's making me think I should change my profession.
Why, and do what?!
Either to become a cook or get into the food business, or get into army or a gun shooting business or into the car or bike racing scene.
Okay then. So how have you been spending your time during the lockdown?
I've caught up on my pending sleep for the last two years.. shut off my brain for the first time in ten years. But it has turned back on since the last few days.
So what is your brain telling you to do now?
I am doing some cooking, I’m constantly hungry. I work out so I can eat. I am catching up on some OTT shows.
Your thoughts for your fans during these trying times?
It's a strange time. I wish I could be there for each one of them.. make sure all have the basic necessities.
What do you feel about the pandemic?
Many generations have braved and fought many things. Some saw and survived the British rule, others dealt with the Partition, they dealt with poverty, epidemics and wars. Our generation’s battle is this, and we have to protect ourselves and our families by not letting the virus get to us, and the way to do it is to stay home. And soon, this too shall pass.
Anything else?
Anything else I say will become serious. I don't want to burden our people who already are dealing with so much. So consciously trying to tell you the lighter side of my lockdown. We are bombarded everywhere by the troubles accompanying the lockdown. I just want them to smile. And know that I am also locked down with them. We have to smile through this.
Tell your audience about the films you have enjoyed
Kumbalangi Nights, loved it. Trivia- I make a guest appearance in it.
Where?
You have to spot it. Hint: location is a movie theatre. Blink and miss appearance it is.
