No Fear No Favour

This is how celebrities time indoor during coronavirus scare

Coronavirus has taken centre stage in the lives of all humans around the world. Our Indian celebrities are no exception to this rule. Due to the contagious nature of the disease, the government has shut down all places of public gatherings like malls, theatres and gyms in Mumbai. Several offices have asked employees to work from home, while all schools and colleges have been shut down. Bollywood has also taken a hit due to this global pandemic, with over shoots being halted and release dates of films being pushed. In such times where the only way to stop the spread of coronavirus is by staying at home, Indian celebrities are trying to find ways to keep themselves entertained.

To achieve this feat, Akki has to be working around the clock, be it filming for his movies or promoting them. In all this chaos, he barely gets any time to spend with his family. But now that Sooryavanshi has been pushed and he doesn’t have to venture out on promotions any longer, Akki spends his days wearing tropical onesies. His actress-turned-author wife, Twinkle Khanna posted a story that saw the couple kicking it back on a couple of hammocks with warm teas in their hands. Take a page out of the book of these Indian celebrities and take this time to disconnect with the world and take a break from your hectic routines.
