Shekhar Kapur reveals being stranded in far away from civilization, somewhere outside India!

The nationwide battle has waged against the coronavirus pandemic and doctors are trying their best to overcome this horrifying situation. While the state has seen a lockdown for more than a month now, Bollywood filmmaker Shekhar Kapoor is reportedly is stranded far away from civilization, somewhere outside India.

In a conversation with Bollywood Hungama, he talked about being secluded from the internet and connectivity. However, the filmmaker revealed that he receives news on his phone intermittently. To everyone’s concern, he also mentioned being a 12-hour drive away from serious medical help. But being so cut off from civilization has frightened Shekhar.

I am locked down in a place where there is very little internet and connectivity. However, I do get news on my phone intermittently. It’s painful. But I’ve little to complain about. Compared to so many of my countrymen. I am relatively well-fed and have a roof above my head. What if I fall sick? I am a 12-hour drive from serious medical help, that’s if I can even find someone to drive me. It’s a sobering thought. But what do I do? Where do I go? If I had to move, there is absolutely nowhere I could go.

Shekhar Kapoor agreed that this pandemic is a wakeup call for humanity and we have gotten used to isolating ourselves from harsh realities. He also asserted that this virus is a hard slap on our civilization.

Meanwhile, Shekhar Kapur and actress-singer Suchitra Krishnamoorthi’s daughter Kaveri returned back to India from Boston where she was stuck after the college got shut and students had to vacate dormitories.

Kaveri, who is studying at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, landed in India on Thursday. She has put herself under self-quarantine for 14 days over coronavirus concerns.
