I’ve been eating just dry ration for the past many days — there are no vegetable, no fruits. We’re so cut off. I’m in Morjim and people here are having a terrible time. It’s only in Panjim that the situation is fine. My heart goes out to everyone,” said Nafisa.
The 63-year-old actress also said that she and her daughter’s family had plans to stay in Goa for 10 days when they arrived early this month from Delhi but due to the coronavirus scare they had to extend the trip.
