As the country begins to unlock after a decline in Covid cases and death, Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan urged the people to not become carefree. He stated that everyone still needs to follow covid appropriate behavior and not let the situation go out of hand. He tweeted, "Even though conditions on CoviD, in some locations may be seeing a decline.. PLEASE DO NOT be lax .. keep the protocol ..
Wash hands, wear masks, keep the distance, control travel to the very essentials, and follow the time limits .. and get VACCINATED."

Big B also appealed through his blog and said, "It is a long journey and still many miles to cover." He wrote, "some very guarded relaxations of the lockdown in certain parts of the Country have been initiated and Mumbai is one such. There is a face of appreciable relief among many and the desire to move about with the just precautions and the protocol of travel timing restrictions do prevail. Restricted travel becomes operational .. the offices of work begin operations and the absolute needed facilities get going."
He added, "The preparations for the eventual third wave are getting a speeded attention .. all the necessary that were caught unawares in the last few months have been or are being given due need and there seems to be a sense of contentment in the workings so far for the eventualities that may occur ..It is a long journey and still many miles to cover , but each step in the right direction shall count."
"We are a caring society .. we shall prevail .. so help me God..Keep safe .. do not feel that the relaxation of the conditions means that all is clear .. NO .. far from it .. we must continue to take all the necessary precautions .. wash hands , wear the mask keep the distance .. if work is permitted get the vaccinations , but be in precaution .. obey the directions given by the medical fraternity"
