I was tested COVID positive three weeks ago. I was asymptomatic for 21 days. With God's grace, I tested COVID negative today. As much as I count my blessings that my battle with this disease has been much easier, but at the same time I must admit that these last 21 days in the isolation have been the most challenging for me to deal with. No amount of facetime and digital immersion can kill the evil of loneliness.  I am happy to be back with my family and loved ones. Surround yourselves with love... that's true strength, and it's all one needs. Test early, eat healthy, stay fit, the only way to fight this monster. Love, Genelia."

Some time ago, Genelia Deshmukh had shared a video of her sons, Riaan Deshmukh and Rahyl Deshmukh studying in their new classroom and had captioned it as "Children are amazing and they adapt to everything but as parents and especially in these times, we are so lost.. We keep worrying, what world are we going to bring up our children in.. I had a city upbringing and Riteish had a both City & Rural. I envied him very often and then I thought I’d love to keep the kids as close to nature, animals as I can. It’s been three months since lockdown and we have been away from Mumbai, living in our village... Now that the lockdown has been lifted, we got a chance to go to our farm... Our kids found a new classroom, they sit under a tree and read and write, and as a parent, I feel so satisfied to see this happen. I see them being more aware of their surroundings, more compassionate towards animals.. like someone rightfully said, “We don’t inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it for our children”."
