He had further thanked technology as it is the only bridge connecting him with his family. He had stated, “For me, they are everything.

We should count our blessings, and never take them for granted.” Going further in the interview, when he was asked whether he wanted to make some changes in his life or not, he had replied, “As a father and husband, I am worried about their safety, even though I know that they are fine.”
In an interview with the Etimes, Maanayata had opened up on the same and shared how she wished that her husband, Sanjay was with her in this lockdown. She had shared, "I just wish we were together as a family and not living in different countries. Things would definitely have been easy and lockdown wouldn’t have looked like a task as this would have been the perfect time for Sanjay to spend time with the kids. So this is something I regret a little. The lockdown was sudden and unexpected, so being away from home feels bad but in the end, we make the most of it."
