Arjun Bijlani’s Mother Is Diabetic, Actor Worried

The Coronavirus is said to affect the elderly most frequently and more so to people with diabetes, cancer and people who have weakened immune systems and this is precisely the reason why TV actor Arjun Bijlani is absolutely distraught.
Well, his mother is diabetic and as we all know, the uninitiated, last week, the high-rise near Infiniti mall in Malad west, where his mother resides, was sealed by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) after a resident tested positive for COVID-19.
Arjun lives with his wife Neha Swami and son Ayaan in Andheri Lokhandwala. Midday quotes him as saying, “The lockdown is not easy, especially if you have ageing parents. It's unbelievable that I am not able to meet my mother.”
Having said that, the actor does understand that it is a necessary step to control the virus and flatten the curve but at the same time he admits that this lockdown imposes a lot of problems to the senior citizens. The report further quotes him as saying, "I am worried for my mother because she is diabetic. Despite suffering from chronic back pain, she has no option but to do the household chores at the moment. My younger brother Niranjan and I are trying to help her in every way we can. [We are ordering the essentials online], which are then being delivered at the gate of the complex."
Bijlani further revealed, he almost teared up when he last spoke to her over the phone. He has been further quoted as saying, "When I was talking to her recently, my eyes welled up as I listened to how she is running the house. After my father passed away, I have been her pillar of support. But I feel helpless at this point as I can't rush to her."
