The first thing Samrat Reddy, founder of healthy juice brand Drunken Monkey, did after Hyderabad eased lockdown restrictions was go to a park and play cricket.
A sports enthusiast, Reddy, 35, often played basketball, cricket and badminton on weekday mornings or weekends to stay fit and “stimulate the mind".
Though he was exercising at home during the lockdown, it wasn’t the same, he admits. “The way I see it, we have the option to keep staying put or take precautions and venture out a little.
We are cautiously stepping out. The place where we played earlier with 20-30 people, is now admitting only five-six people," he says.
