Esha Gupta was aware of the gravity of the Covid-19 situation much before it reached India, all thanks to her Spanish boyfriend. The actor, who isn’t comfortable revealing the name of her businessman beau, shares that he has been updating her about the deadly virus and the precautions one needs to take to fight it. The other set of people she’s worried about is her family in Delhi. She connects with them via video call daily to check if “they’re taking good care of themselves”.

Gupta agrees that maintaining sanity in such trying times is difficult. “It’s natural. But we can’t lose the battle so easily. We need to try our best. Try doing yoga, it helps a lot. And focus on the good things in life. I’m also keeping myself away from negative people,” she adds, revealing that she’s also learning Spanish, playing the guitar, cooking and baking.
