Priyanka Chopra Says She was Scared for Family during COVID-19

-

Global star Priyanka Chopra shared about her fears for her family while she was stuck in London amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has been creating havoc since its arrival. Everybody is scared of contractin­g the deadly disease and our ‘Desi Girl’ is no exception. In an interview with People Magazine, Priyanka candidly opened up about her fears for family, especially her husband and singer Nick Jonas amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The ‘Dostana’ actor said that she takes the current health crisis “very, very seriously”. During the interview, the 38-year-old actress spoke about her experience of working during the lockdown in London and how she was worried for her loved ones during this tumultuous time. As for the uncertaint­y that still comes with shooting film and television projects, even with strict protocols put in place, Priyanka described it as “kind of a crazy experience.” “As actors, we’re still taking off our masks in front of other actors, you know, and that’s part of the job. And I feel like, that’s kind of really daunting,” said the actress. “My husband is a type one diabetic, I’m asthmatic. I have my Mum who’s living with me right now so, I just feel like I’m also, on the job, you know, responsibl­e for a set of hundreds of people. So I take it very, very seriously.” Priyanka takes this pandemic as a “very emotional and scary time”. Last year, she opened up to People Magazine about how she and her husband have taken extra precaution­s amid the pandemic due to conditions that may put them at a higher risk for more severe cases of COVID-19. “We have to be even more careful. But there have been a lot of

Zoom calls and Zoom brunches,” she shared.
