The sudden outbreak of the deadly Coronavirus aka COVID-19 has brought the whole world to a standstill. With the number of infected increasing at an alarming rate per day, the Central and State Governments have enabled a complete lockdown in the entire country. Apart from this, officials of the State Governments are urging citizens to stay home, be safe and follow social distancing. Now, as we complete nearly 10 days into a complete lockdown of 21 days, Karan Johar, in association with a leading newspaper asked people to not venture out unnecessarily.
