Mumbai: The world has changed due to Covid-19 and nowhere has been immune to those changes. India has been through many different stages, one thing that has been apparent throughout though has been that Indians have had more time on their hands.

Whether this was due to no work, events being cancelled or no family gatherings, the reasons are varied. The fact is, people have more hours to fill right now, and they have been filling them in different ways through hobbies and learning.

If you’ve ever wanted to learn a hobby, try something new or get involved somewhere but haven’t found the time, the chances are you have had the time recently.

So, what kind of things have Indian been up to in a bid to fill their schedules a little more?

Learning a New Skill

During the first few weeks, many people spent time watching their favourite movies over and over again. But after that, many were bored and at this time some turned to learning a new skill.

This could be DIY around the home to make improvements, cooking or something else. These are often things we would all love to do, but simply have no time for. While this summer has been hard, with many families affected, what it has done is give some people the time to discover things they wouldn’t normally have the time for.

It’s not too late to get involved here either, some kind of restriction will continue to be in place moving forward, try to use the time wisely.

Discovering a New Hobby

Before lockdown, we all had our favourite ways to relax after a hard day. With more time to relax, many people are looking for new hobbies to freshen things up and have a change.

With limits on what could be done, many looked for options at home, some of this including gaming, with casino gaming being one way of enjoying a night in. Those interested have a range of options when it comes to online gaming and many online casinos could soon become completely legal in India as well according to Luckydice.in.

A lack of worldwide sport has hit many people hard and this has been one of the reasons why some have turned to things like online casino gaming.

However, the good news for sports fans out there is that the IPL is scheduled to start next month, with 53 days of action to enjoy. There will even be 10 double headers as part of the tournament, where a game in the afternoon is followed straight after by one in the evening.

Millions of people love cricket in India, but some do struggle to find the time to watch games and take a real interest in the IPL. That can change over the coming weeks, this tournament more than any we have seen before has the platform to be in front of even more fans than it usually is.
