The Sleep Schedule Of Celebrities During The Covid Period

Jyothi Venkatesh

They say "A good night sleep is the best cure for anything". After a long tiring day, if you get a good night's sleep, you wake up fresh in the morning. So sleep not only improves your mood but also reduces stress, improves performance, and believe it or not it also helps maintain weight. But because of the Coronavirus pandemic and the lockdown following it, our sleeping patterns were hugely affected. Some celebs share with JYOTHI VENKATESH their sleep routine, especially in the current COVID situation:

Shashank Vyas

 Yes, because of the lockdown my sleeping pattern went on for a toss, but it's not a big issue because I am a night person majorly. I write at night time. Silence brings out creativity, I guess. If you are having trouble sleeping, don't worry, just follow the guidelines and go on walks or just see the view from your terrace.

Jasmin Bhasin

 During the lockdown my sleep pattern got disturbed very badly. I would stay up till 3 a.m. or 4 a.m. and sleep till 12 or 2 p.m. in the afternoon. It affected me and I was also concerned about it because it affects our body and it reacts to these things differently. Especially as actors, if something like this affects the way I look, then it really bothers me. But now as I am back to shooting, my lifestyle has become normal, and I follow a proper routine. I sleep at 11 p.m. or max by 11:30 p.m. and then get up early next morning. The solution to this is to maintain a discipline.

Vikas Sethi

 I always sleep at 11:30 p.m. and wake up by 7:30 a.m. to workout. My routine did not change even during the lockdown. I advise everyone to pay attention to physical health no matter what.

Meera Deosthale

 Yes, my sleeping pattern got affected during the lockdown. So initially I had gone all out since I haven’t been on a holiday for very long. I used to stay up all night and sleep till noon. But then my eyes started hurting and I got dark circles, that too on a holiday at home, so I decided to get it under control, as it’s really not healthy to stay up all night. Now I sleep by 1-1:30 a.m. max and wake up at a decent time in the morning. I am sure there are many people like me, who are not working currently, but I guess we must look after our health first and make those small changes in our lifestyle.

Dhruvee Haldankar

 I sleep sound everyday.   To fall back into a more regular sleep pattern is possible by setting and keeping up to a regular schedule. I maintain fixed meal times and try to refrain from eating two hours before bed time.

Ankit Siwach

 Because of the lockdown the whole sleeping pattern has gone haywire. Initially I indulged in a lot of binge watching films and shows day and night. Even till today I go to sleep early in the morning and wake up late afternoon. This is a very unhealthy practice, but I don’t want to stress about it now, as work restarts, the mind will adjust accordingly. Right now, the best way is to stay awake for 24 hours straight and then sleep early the next night, keep your phones switched off for two days, things will fall in place automatically.

Jhanvi Sethi

 I always sleep at 11:30 p.m. and wake up by 7:30 a.m for my morning workout. I advise everyone to pay attention to physical health no matter what. Also mental health requires you to create pause rituals like listening to music, dancing and taking a shower.

Shilpa Raizada

 Well, my dad always told me to get up early, so thankfully in the lockdown also there was no change in my sleeping pattern too. If someone is suffering from a sleeping disorder, I think the solution is don’t sleep after lunch and try to go to sleep early by 9 or 10 p.m.

Vijayendra Kumeria: In the first 15 days of the lockdown I also faced a lot of problems. I was  watching a lot of web series at night and my sleeping pattern was very bad. But I realised it soon and stopped sleeping in the afternoon. I used my energy, I used to workout. It is a healthy practice to maintain your sleeping pattern, even if you are at home, and not working, because your body is used to a pattern and disrupting that is not good for your body. My advice to people who are not getting any sleep is to read something nice or listen to some nice music, don’t watch a lot of news and don’t exercise before sleeping, instead watch something nice before sleeping.

Avinash Mukherjee

 I sleep really late like 4 or 5 a.m. in the morning and would wake up by 12 or 2 p.m. But now that the shoots have started I need to maintain a healthy sleeping habit, so I sleep by 11:30 p.m. and wake up by 6 a.m. It is very important if you maintain a good sleeping schedule for your health.

Ashna Kishore

 Yes, definitely it has affected our sleeping patterns badly. I was in Delhi during this lockdown, I was doing nothing so the whole day I was binge watching and I was sleeping at odd hours and waking up at odd hours. Later I decided to make a proper routine. I avoided sleeping in the afternoon. Now that I am back in Mumbai, there are some changes in my sleeping pattern, now I wake up at 5:30 a.m. I come back home at 10 p.m. so that’s the reason I can’t sleep more. I would suggest people to involve themselves in different things so that they can be busy and avoid sleeping in the afternoon.

Angad Hasija

 In lockdown a lot of things improved, but in the initial 10 days I was just sleeping the whole day and then I realised that lockdown will go for long, so I should do something different which I haven’t done before. Then I started sleeping at 10 p.m. and  pm and used to get up at 6 a.m. and I would spend the whole day exploring new things like gardening, reading.

Aarvika Gupta

 It's true sleeping pattern has been affected badly. I am an early riser, but inthe lockdown daily routine was disturbed very badly. I think at night you should make up your mind about what you have to do the next day, it really works for me and the best thing is yoga and meditation. You should also keep yourself engaged with some creative work. Explore yourself, it will make you feel positive, and you can come up with innovative ideas.

Pranitaa Pandit

 Yes, during the lockdown my sleeping pattern got disturbed badly, also because it was my last month of pregnancy,  so there was a lot of discomfort. I used to sleep in bits and pieces, not more than six hours. Even now that the baby has arrived, you can imagine my sleeping pattern. But thankfully everyone is helping, so I try to get as much sleep as I can. If someone is having trouble sleeping, I would suggest they be very active and work out, and make sure you are occupied mentally and physically.

Kettan Singh

 My sleeping pattern has gone for a toss. There are days when I sleep at 11:30 p.m. and wake up at 9:00 a.m. and then there are days when I sleep at 6:00 a.m. and wake up at 2:00 p.m. There is nothing specific because I know that I don’t have to wake up early and go for a shoot or an event, so the sleeping pattern has changed but I make sure I get a good amount of sleep.

Urvashi Upadhyay Sharle

 We are the witness of such a historical incident. When the lockdown started kids were having their exams and because the schools were shut, there was no rush to wake up early in the morning. I used to sleep late. But when the lockdown extended and we thought we should do things which we haven’t done because of our shoots so my family used to wake up early in the morning do yoga, skipping and hula hoop, we have explored many things.
