Uncertain future worrisome, producers not sure when shoots will resume: Meera Chopra

Actor Meera Chopra said the complete shutdown of film industry amid the nationwide lockdown worries her. The film industry came to a grinding halt after the nationwide lockdown was announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 24 to contain the spread of COVID-19 in the country.

She said, "It worries me a lot, I was suppose to start shooting for a show in April, and a movie in June. Both the projects are halted because none of the industry folks know when the shooting will be resumed now. I've been in touch with my producers and they are equally blank about the future."

"It seems right now nothing is in our hands. We are facing a huge crisis and we all have to fight that first and then think about anything else. We have to fight corona together for our better future. It's very important to maintain our mental balance right now, it's a very sensitive period," Meera told PTI.
