Until we have a real cure in sight, weddings and celebrations will be small, intimate affairs of around 50-60 people. The hotels stand to gain in the first wave, but the wedding planner may not have a big role to play.

It may not be a viable proposition for us to put in that much effort for 50 people and not make that sort of revenue. So, hotels might be the bigger gainer. We will need to gear up with adequate resources and team members to be ready to handle the V-shaped recovery. I think we will see the real upswing from October 2021.
