Apart from the efforts on the field on a medical level, positivity and unity have been important factors in the battle against COVID-19. Despite facing a challenge with the rise in the number of cases, the country had displayed unity and solidarity by coming together in the initiatives to applaud and spread light led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The celebrities have also been coming together and sharing motivational music videos to boost the morale of the citizens.
