Just like 2020, the year 2021 has also turned out to be a nightmare for all of us. The pandemic has an adverse effect on people’s mental health, leading to increased stress, anxiety and depression.

Talking about it, actress Aarti Vij says, “Just like other people, this lockdown has badly affected my mental health. Just before the lockdown, I had signed for a project with a prominent artiste and music label but owing to the pandemic and the lockdown, I really don’t know when it is going to start. Moreover, television and social media are flooded with depressing stories these days, all such things started triggering my mental stress.”
