Facing the new normal

Shooting schedules have resumed, and actors are adjusting to the new ‘normal’ comprising masks, temperature checks and limited people on the sets. Debina Bonnerjee talks about her first day of shoot on the sets of Aladdin. Debina says, “While resuming shooting made me nervous, the arrangements made on the sets have been very good. The sets now have a three-tier entry system where your oxygen level is checked, along with your temperature and pulse rate. A sanitizing booth has also been set up, and a Covid-19 expert has also been stationed to perform regular checks on all of us. The feeling is still very nerve-wracking because you can’t see the virus. The precautionary measures are well in place, so what we can hope for is to be safe.”
