 Actress Nafisa Ali who is in Goa currently in a interview to Hindustan Times has revealed that she is in dire straits due to the coronavirus lockdown. The former beauty queen and cancer survivor said that with no food and medicines the situation is getting worse day by day. Nafisa told HT, "The groceries shops are shut for the last six days. I’m a cancer survivor; I need to eat proper food. 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." 

She added that she came to Goa in early March for a 10-day trip but had to extend her stay due to the lockdown. "My grandchildren’s schools were shut so my daughter was anyway scared for my health and so she asked me to come to Goa. And then there was the lockdown and everything is shut here. All my medicines are finishing. The courier services are not working so I can’t have them delivered from elsewhere. So what option so I have now? I’m not taking any medicines, which is not good for my health,” Nafisa said.
