'Pelli Choopulu' comedian Priyadarshi has decided to quarantine himself for two weeks after returning from the Georgia schedule of Prabhas' 20th movie. "So I made a choice, I will be at home for the next 14 days before giving myself a clean chit. Because social distancing is the need of the hour. Let's not panic but let's just be cautious and considerate towards each other's well-being," the 'Mallesham' actor today said.

Last week, Priyadarshi shot for a few scenes with Prabhas and Pooja Hegde for the untitled film directed by Radhakrishna Kumar.

Back in Hyderabad, Priyadarshi also praised the efforts of the Telangana government in combating COVID-19. "A fellow passenger who passed thermal screening voluntarily went to a health worker and told about his cough and willingness for quarantine. Required actions were immediately taken up. Social responsibility shown by him and the preparedness of the T Govt in fighting #COVID2019 is praiseworthy," he added.

So I made a choice, I will be at home for next 14 days before giving myself a clean chit.

Because #SocialDistancing is the need of the hour.
