India is currently under a total lockdown as Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged the citizens to stay at home to protect themselves from COVID-19. Called for 21 days, there has been panic around it with several citizens indulging in panic buying, some worrying about expenses, daily wage workers being worried and more. However, there is also a different kind of ‘lockdown’, as Mohammad Kaif puts it, something he is happy to be put in for nine years.
