Just when you thought that things were getting back to normal, the number of COVID-19 positive cases shot up. Amongst the list, a lot of Bollywood celebs too are contracting the deadly virus and coping up with it. Manoj Bajpayee, who has been busy promoting Silence, his latest Zee5 series from home post-testing positive, speaks about his frustrations in an exclusive interview. 

Manoj, how are you recovering from the  Covid virus?
My wife and I   are recovering well, thank you. The first few days were very painful and worrisome, Because the symptoms were quite pronounced. 

For those out there who would like to know what it feels like?...
It is something I wouldn’t want anyone to go through. It’s not only painful annoying and bothersome. The worst thing is it is unpredictability. You never know what kind of pain awaits you next while you are infected. It’s better to be cautious and protected than to go through what I am going through. Follow the protocol and restrictions as much as possible.


What are your plans after recovery?
At the moment my wife and I are resting at home. We are almost entirely recovered. But  I am packing my luggage for my next schedule in Uttarakhand. I’ve to go back to Uttarakhand and complete the schedule that we had to stop when COVID hit us in March 2020. I am leaving in the next ten days and I’ll be in Uttarakhand for the next two months.

Once that is over?
Once I am back I will finish the shooting that was halted when I contracted Covid.

Your thoughts as you rest at home?
It is frustrating to be sitting at home doing nothing, just when we thought things were getting back to normal. But that’s the way it is. We are mere mortals, We have no idea of the plans the Almighty has for us. We keep unnecessarily making plans down here when the one above has other plans. I want you to know we love you and want you to stay safe and healthy.
