Siddhaanth Vir Surryavanshi has taken a break from social media in order to shut the constant noise and distraction. Speaking about it, he says, “I want to take a break from social media and will be back soon. I think it’s better to focus on people around me, read a book or work on a new skill, rather than scrolling through social media pages every now and then. I only know 10 per cent of my followers personally, plus there is this pressure of posting engaging content on it at regular intervals. In fact, I started comparing myself to others after seeing their posts too and while there is nothing bad in that, the real problem is that it diverts me from my real priorities and taking out time for myself and my family. I would rather choose to live in the moment, rather than clicking pictures and posting them.”

He added, “I tell my children to get off their phones and enjoy things around them, but what am I doing? I am also on my phone every 5 minutes. I want to set a good example for them and want them to realise that we can be in touch with our friends and spend time with family.”
