Chandigarh, January 15

Singer Asha Bhosle shared a picture on Twitter proving how technology is taking over in the real world.

Asha said she had good company travelling with her from Bagdogra to Kolkata.

Though the singer is seen sitting on a sofa, staring at everyone, while others in the room are glued to their phones.

Bagdogra to Kolkata... Such good company but still, no one to talk to. Thank you Alexander Graham Bell pic.twitter.com/PCH92kO1Fs

This is a classic shot. So true, and somewhat sad.

Something that has been invented to strengthen the communication, has been changed into the 'cause of emotional disconnect'.
This is the common situation at many places these days.
😒😔
