In the present scenario, working from home or staying at home is the best way to save ourselves from the coronavirus outbreak and the citizens of almost every country have put themselves in isolation. The situation is quite serious as more than 3 lakh people have been found infected with coronavirus and over 13,000 have lost their lives.
The disease is contagious in nature so the governments and the medical authorities have been urging people to remain indoors, travel only if it is a necessity and wash your hands regularly. While the situation in some countries is still under control, countries like Italy are going through a very tough phase. We have already seen many videos from the people of Italy, Spain etc. in which they are requesting people of other countries not to make the mistakes that they have made and urge everyone to remain indoors and practice social distancing.
While sitting in their homes, people are making the most of their time and also bringing out the creative person which got lost in the hustle-bustle of their hectic life. The author and TV producer Elan Gale started a new trend #QuarantineNickname on the micro-blogging site Twitter when he posted a tweet asking Twitterati about their quarantine nickname and the last thing that they ate out of the cupboard. Here is what he tweeted,
“Your quarantine nickname is how you feel right now + the last thing you ate out of the cupboard”
You can call me ‘angry chili mango’”

The same trend was started in India by Atul Kasbekar, the Indian movie producer, and this is what he tweeted,
“What’s your #QuarantineNickname
