And I can't be, none of us are. We are experiencing this inexplicable pain, from all that is happening around us, and we are all expressing it very differently."
The actress added "We are not just losing people to Covid, but we are also losing people to hunger, to the lack of oxygen, to the lack of timely medical care." She also urged people to stay indoors and follow precautionary measures by social distancing and also getting vaccinated against the virus.

"I would also like to make an appeal to join forces and channelise all our energies towards helping those who need us at this point. While I have my own charitable trust, I am honest, ashamed but brave enough to say that there are people who have much more gumption and bigger hearts than me, who are personally doing the job of feeding these people who need their help. Yes, it did make me feel very small but my thought was 'what can I do?' So the least we can do in these times is play a catalyst," she said.
