Social media has its pros too: Pankaj
Actor Pankaj Tripathi, who remained elusive on social media for the longest time, says during the lockdown he realised the medium has its pros, too.
“It’s difficult to not get taken in by the hustle-bustle of social media. But during the lockdown, I realised it has its pros too. I was always wary that being too active on social media will occupy too much of my mind and I will start focusing on things that don’t add value to my craft as an actor,” Pankaj said.
Pankaj has always believed that learning is boundless.
On the acting front, he will next be seen in Kabir Khan’s 83.
‘I kind of like the fact that not only there are very well-done versions of the character (Batman) which seem pretty definitive, but I wondered that there are multiple definitive playings of the character, too. You've seen this sort of lighter, jaded or animalistic version. But where's my opening? It's a legacy part, right? I like that.’

Actor Manisha Koirala tweeted that the COVID-19 pandemic has changed her sleep pattern and that she finds herself wide awake even after midnight.
“It’s almost like a child who is unwilling to go to sleep,” she tweeted.
Reacting to her tweet, netizens offered her a few suggestions. One user requested her to explain the same to his mom because he gets scolded for getting up late every day. Manisha responded saying that she also gets scolded by her mom for waking up late.
