So how connected is she with her phone? “Very much. Besides calling and messaging, I am very active on Instagram and watch a lot of videos on Youtube to stay updated on the latest happenings around the world, especially in the entertainment industry. Let me give you a fun update. My phone has a flashlight and whenever we shoot and face light issues, I switch it on. Now you know how diverse a phone’s use has become in today’s times!”

We agree, Avika. But when you use your phone so extensively, you must be facing battery issues as well? “Yes, it’s a common problem. For me, I tend to be alert and keep my phone charged. Other than that, one has to find means of dealing with battery woes.”

A laadli of her parents, does she ever face issues connecting with them due to phone battery dying out? “Well, what can one do about it! I believe we have all faced situations wherein you wanted to reach out to someone and could not due to the battery being dead. The only option is to be patient and wait for phone to charge. It’s not a great feeling, of course, and does cause some anxiety.”

So would it be nice if your phone’s battery lasted longer? “Definitely! It’s a necessity, especially these days,” ends Avika.
