Radhika Apte Asks People To Stop Panicking & Stocking All Food

Despite busy work in London during the coronavirus crisis, Radhika Apte heads for Indian workers, drivers, and house helps. Deeds inside!

Holding many projects in hand, Radhika Apte is a busy bee this year when she starts directing some films such as Sleepwalkers, another with Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and the worldwide web series Shantaram. Otherwise, when she is off work, she prefers to station in London as of now.

Due to the coronavirus outbreak over the world, the Indian government declared a 21-day nationwide lockdown until April 14. The 34-year-old actress shared that her place is also locked down. Since then, many supermarkets appeared empty when people rushed there to stock food. She unveiled:

"We are not in a food crisis, so it's really a shame. A friend of mine told me from Goa (India) that there's no food there. I think we need to be vigilant about it, if we start behaving like this, a lot of people will suffer. Nothing here is open apart from pharmacies and supermarkets. You are allowed to go and exercise, so I go for running."

When talking about how the film industry will be affected by the pandemic when all of the movie shootings and releases have been postponed during this time, she mentioned more about the daily wage workers we need to care for now. She appealed:

"We are still in a far better condition, we are all in a business where most people have savings. It's the most of the Indian population we need to worry about. A lot of people, daily wage workers are losing their jobs. There's only one message I want to give to people: donate, this is the time. It's really not a lot that needs to donate, there are so many platforms. Also, please don't hoard food, there's no shortage. It's damaging for others."

After a long time of working day and night, Radhika Apte seems to take a rest at this time. On the work front, she explained that she didn't think to venture into directing. She saw a nice collaboration of working with some nice people and had enough money to turn it real.
