"Absolutely. We were certainly not complaining. It (lockdown) has, of course, been a difficult time for a lot of people. And that’s why, the one thing that I absolutely feel, this year, is gratitude. Just to be able to be at home with each other, and being safe is a blessing. Thank God, we didn’t get locked down without each other, which happened to quite a few people. So, what more can we ask for," Deepika told HT.
