‘DIFFICULT BUT NECESSARY TO STAY HOME’
Disha Patani is utilising her time by pampering her pets, working out, and practising basic dance steps
Actor Disha Patani has been treating her fans to glimpses from her daily life in this lockdown on social media. Be it cuddling with her pets, or sharing nostalgic memories, she is making sure that she doesn’t disconnect altogether.
We ask her how the entire situation has been for her, being holed up inside her house, and she says that this is all too new for her. “I’ve a lot of free time to myself, something that rarely happens because of shooting schedules and travelling around. I’m spending most of the time pampering my pets. And apart from all this, I am also catching up on some movies. I’m also working out at home and practising basic dance routines to keep me occupied,” says Patani.
The 27-year-old had started the year with a successful release — Malang — and was excited for her subsequent biggies. However, due to shoots of all kinds being stopped, her films, too, had to be stalled. “My upcoming film, Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, with Salman Khan got pushed, and so did the commencement of Ek Villain 2. I am hoping for everything to start soon. It’s difficult to stay at home, but it’s necessary for all of us, so that we can fight the pandemic,” confesses Disha.
Even in this lockdown, her personal life was under the scanner. Reports earlier, did the rounds that Patani is maybe living with her Baaghi 2 co-star Tiger Shroff’s family. And her goofy video on Instagram with Tiger’s sister Krishna added fuel to the fire.
However, Krishna cleared the air and said recently, that Disha isn’t living with them, she just lives close-by. On who else she is in touch with apart from Tiger’s family, all Patani says is, “I’ve been in touch with my family and my team (for work). We do our regular meetings etc., on conference calls.”
Amid the many things she is keeping herself busy with, the actor has also got time to introspect. And here’s the realisation she has come to in the past oneand-a-half months,
“Nothing is more important than your and your loved ones’ health. We all need to come out of this pandemic, safely and in good health,” she signs off.
