Patralekhaa shares how she is dealing with lockdown

Well-known actress Patralekhaa, who grew up in a boarding school and was a pampered daughter at home, was never fond of spending time in the kitchen and preparing food, but the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic has changed a lot of things in her life. She is not only cooking food in the kitchen, but also doing several other household chores.

“Suddenly, I was like, ‘What will happen’. But YouTube has been of great help. I have been cooking non-stop. I also find it therapeutic as I can get my head off a lot many things. I am thoroughly enjoying it,” she tells a publication.


The actress goes on to add that she has stopped posting food photos on social media. “Initially, I did, but then I felt it is not cool. Every time I check my Twitter or I read the news, it is not great to see what is happening around the world. So, I stopped posting pictures,” she adds.

“I also feel that people need to consume and see happier things. If somebody is cooking up something amazing, and it makes their fans happier, why not? Nobody is wrong,” reasons Patralekhaa.

On the work front, Patralekhaa will next star in an upcoming webseries. The actress says that she has already started preparing for the project, which may start rolling after the lockdown is lifted.

“I am doing a series which has not been announced yet, and my prep has started. So, I am doing readings with my director through video apps, and work is going on, touchwood! The fun part is that we are doing all this, and we don’t know when it will start, when is this (pandemic) going to end and what is going to happen,” she says in conclusion.
