Popular actress and lux star Urmila Srabonti Kar is at home as a conscious citizen to deal with the situation caused by the coronavirus. As she is not busy with work, she is spending great time at home with her lovedones. A Mizan talks to her regarding passing her time
How are you spending your time?
I am fully behind closed doors now. I help my mother and lend hand cleaning the house. If there is urgency then maybe sometimes I visit the market. For the safety of our entire building, the stairways are being wiped regularly, the switch boards, and lift buttons are also being cleaned. I'm giving time to myself and trying to get to know myself better. That's how I am passing my time.
How long has it been since you last went out?
After finishing shooting at Kushtia on 19th of March I got back home. And still haven’t left home without special needs.
What's your message to everyone?
Everyone should stay at home, obey all the rules. Give all kinds of help to the people around you. Be aware of yourself and make others aware.
The whole world is stopped because of Corona. How much has frustration grasped you?
Sometimes I get very frustrated when thinking about the future. Then I started explaining myself again. I am hoping of something new and better.
Missing media work?
For the first time in ten years I am spending time with my family. I am reminded of my childhood. I am missing my father. It's been a long time since I couldn't do anything new because of coronavirus. So, I really miss my work.
Are you in contact with anyone from the media?
There is regular communication with people who are close to me in the media. People who are close are connected on Messenger. We give mental support to each other. If someone gets too upset, others try to counsel them. And when someone is in danger, we try to help.
What do you want to do first when the coronavirus crisis is solved?
When Coronavirus ends, I want to take an old friend and wander somewhere far away in peace. We can't look forward to any new work. Now, people can at least feel that they can get away from work if they feel like it. Work and routine busyness does not mean life, it is something else.
