How are you spending your time at home in the lockdown?
Jhadu (sweeping). Pocha (mopping). Kitten. Beer. Music. Porridge. Dancing. Crying. Litter scooping. Video chat. Watering the plants. The Office. Kitten. Eggs. Workout. Nothing. Music. Kitten. Google Hangout. Reading. Killing Eve. Nothing. Love? Love. Yoga. Kitten. Crying. Music.
Any books that the lockdown has helped you finally read?
The Secret Network of Nature by Peter Wohlleben, is what I am reading now. Next on my list: The Hidden Life of Trees, same author, Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston, Ants Among Elephants by Sujatha Gidla, A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan, Kutte by Vijay Tendulkar.
Have you been bingeing on any series or films?
The Office. Chernobyl. True Detective Season 3. What We Do In The Shadows. Dave. Killing Eve. About to start Ozark.
What are you doing to maintain your well-being in isolation?
Uh. Well, I do video call workouts with my trainer Varoon Vesuna. I also drop in on some Zoom yoga sessions led by my mother’s friend Shehnaz. On some days, I’ll realise it is 9.30 pm and I haven’t eaten anything apart from an apple and two cups of coffee. Not particularly healthy. One of the weeks I was extremely emotional and thoughts I had been having for a while leading up to the quarantine were intensified and finally burst forth.
