The video features a few Mumbai Police personnel who share their idea of spending time in isolation but are unable to live their dreams. While some say they would spend some quality time with their partners, kids and pets, some express their desire to read, watch movies or catch on some sleep if they get to stay home, unlike the common man.

Akshay Kumar posted a picture of himself holding a placard with “#DilSe Thank You” written on it. He shared it on Instagram with the caption, “Name : Akshay Kumar. City : Mumbai. Mere aur mere parivaar ki taraf se... Police, Nagar Nigam ke workers, doctors, nurses, NGOs, volunteers, government officials, vendors, building ke guards ko #DilSeThankYou.”
