“Coronavirus is the biggest villain of all time and can be defeated if people co-operate. We just have to give support to them (the government, health workers). So support them and take care of yourself. Do not go out of your house without any reason. Stay away from crowd. Do not let coronavirus survive.

“People should stay at home, as it’s the best thing to do in the interest of everyone’s health right now. Also, we are lucky to have the privilege to be home comfortably. There are many out there working to protect lives and provide us our essentials”, said Dia Mirza.

“If we all isolate ourselves, we shall see this through. Every night has a day. Think positive,” veteran singer Asha Bhosle.

“The world is healing. We’re all closer despite the distance. In kindness, in care, in responsibility and most importantly in our love. We’re in this together, doing all we can to protect our one big family,” said Aditi Rao Hydari.

“People should help medical professionals and staff by staying indoors even after today’s curfew is over. Let’s help all the daily wage workers we come in contact with to tide them over these financially distressing times. Let’s also help the senior citizens living alone in our neighbourhood for their daily requirements. Together we can fight the Coronavirus & its aftermath,” said Renuka Shahane.
