Amid the Covid-19 lockdown, actor Abhay Deol has taken up painting as a pastime. And his latest drawing depicts the condition of the poor people who have been severely affected by the novel coronavirus.
Taking to social media, Abhay posted a picture of his artwork that shows a poor lady begging. Not only this, the Dev D actor also pointed at the things that are going wrong in the nation amid the serious health crisis. “Trying to get back into drawing/painting. Couldn’t help but draw the people most affected by the pandemic. I should try and work on happier themes! But living in a country that fans communal hatred even through a pandemic, with a media that is itself biased and divisive, where there is active disinformation everywhere manipulating people, where your nationalism is more important than your humanity, I guess this woman is appropriate,” Abhay wrote on Instagram.
Like many in Bollywood, Abhay too is in self isolation. Some time back, he had posted a picture from his days in New York, 11 years ago. Recalling his days there, Abhay wrote: “My friend sent me these pics from when I lived in NYC 11 years ago! I have no pictures of my own from that time. Brought back memories. What a time that was, running as far away as I could from the attention I was getting. Age has definitely helped me accept many a thing stardom brings with it.”

It’s such a hub of activity. The creative possibilities here are unlimited. I want to grow not just as an actor but also as a human being,” he had said.
Abhay, who is close to his cousin sister Esha Deol Takhtani, had recently congratulated her on turning an author. Taking to Instagram , he had written: “My baby sis just wrote her own book for new mothers and their babies! So proud @imeshadeol Becoming a new mother can be an exciting yet overwhelming time. No matter how prepared you are, there will always be many confusing moments, opinions and a whole lot of drama! And just like any other new mom, Esha Deol Takhtani was faced with many such questions soon after the birth of her two daughters-Radhya and Miraya.”
