As
the
country
continues
to
battle
the
second
wave
of
COVID-19
pandemic
with
many
states
imposing
fresh
lockdowns
to
stop
the
rising
number
of
cases,
actress
Madhuri
Dixit
in
a
recent
tete-a-tete
with
a
leading
tabloid
said
that
she
is
trying
to
stay
calm
by
spending
time
with
her
family
and
being
there
for
her
friends
amid
these
trying
times.
A
Hindustan
Times
report
quoted
the
Kalank
actress
as
saying,
"You
have
to
keep
your
spirits
up,
keep
your
faith
and
do
everything
necessary."
Madhuri
said,
"There's
an
off
chance
that
you
do
everything,
and
you
still
get
it,
but
you
have
to
keep
the
spirits
high,
keep
encouraging
other
people,
and
keep
saying
that
there's
light
at
the
end
of
this
tunnel," further
adding
that
the
ongoing
crisis
in
the
country
is
so
bad
that
it's
heartbreaking
to
see
the
kind
of
problems,
agony
and
loss
that
everybody
is
facing.
Speaking
about
how
she
is
glad
to
be
with
her
family
during
these
uncertain
times,
Madhuri
told
the
tabloid,
"My
kids
are
home,
my
mom
and
my
husband.
We're
spending
as
much
time
together
as
possible.
We're
looking
at
the
brighter
side,
and
trying
to
give
each
other
the
support
that
we
need.
My
son
will
go
to
college
this
year.
So,
I'm
spending
time
with
him,
doing
simple
things
like
cooking
or
jamming
together."
The
actress
said
that
she
also
makes
sure
to
check
on
her
friends
to
make
sure
that
they
are
okay
and
if
they
need
help.
Madhuri
who
recently
took
her
second
jab
of
COVID-19
vaccine,
further
stressed
on
the
importance
of
wearing
masks
the
right
way
and
said,
"It's
not
only
to
protect
yourself,
but
others
as
well
because
you
can
be
a
carrier,
you
can
give
it
(to
others)
without
having
any
symptoms.
So,
it's
very
important
to
wear
a
mask,
and
to
wear
it
the
right
way."
Further,
the
actress
revealed
that
she
will
be
spearheading
an
initiative
'United
By
Dance'
through
her
online
dance
academy
'Dance
with
Madhuri'
to
help
people
in
keeping
their
spirits
up
and
health
in
check.
Madhuri
said
that
she
considers
dance
to
be
a
spiritual
thing
and
added,
"I
love
dancing,
it
keeps
me
fit.
It's
a
great
form
of
exercise.
It
keeps
the
blood
pumping.
In
fact,
dancing
is
also
great
for
mental
health."
Bollywood's
'dhak
dhak
girl'
has
been
homebound
ever
since
the
shooting
of
her
dance
reality
show
got
stalled
due
to
the
lockdown
in
Maharashtra.
Meanwhile,
the
actress
is
all
set
to
make
her
Netflix
debut
with
a
web
series
titled
Finding
Anamika.
