Yuvraj Singh-backed Healthians joins hands with Likee to empower millions in fight against Coronavirus
MUMBAI: Short-video platform Likee has partnered with health-tech brand Healthians, backed by cricketer Yuvraj Singh, to raise awareness about the global pandemic, which has affected as many as 185 countries across the world. As part of the collaboration, several doctors associated with Healthians will interact directly with Likeers on the issue.
Over a period of five days, doctors and nutritionists associated with Healthians, which is one of India’s leading doorstep health test providers, will join live sessions conducted by the Likee Official India team. During the sessions, they will interact with Likeers and answer all their queries related to the dreaded virus outbreak. Apart from responding to queries, the medical professionals will use the opportunity to provide smart and useful tips on wellness and raise awareness about the pandemic.
The sessions will commence on Saturday – March 28, 2020, and will continue thereafter on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. There will be a one-hour session each day from 6 pm to 7 pm. Healthians co-founder Mr Deepak Sahni, Dr Pranava, Dr Deepak Parashar and nutritionist Saumya Shatakshi will interact with the Likeers during the drive. The five-day-long interactive session is expected to benefit millions of Likee users, who hardly have any source other than the Internet to gather information in this phase of an unprecedented lockdown.
Talking about the initiative, Abhishek Dutta, Head of Likee India, said, “It is our social responsibility to equip Likee users with all the information they need in this time of crisis. It is also imperative that the source of information is authentic and reliable. Hence, we have joined hands with Yuvraj Singh’s Healthians to empower millions in this war against Covid-19, ensuring people get maximum awareness while staying safe at their homes.”
Deepak Sahni, Founder and CEO of Healthians echoed the sentiments, saying, “In a situation like this people are bound to panic when they notice any minor symptoms and they are going through a lot of anxiety due to the lockdown when visit to hospitals are also restricted. Our collaboration with Likee is to reassure and empower them with information that’s relevant and meaningful so that their fears and doubts are allayed.”
The collaboration signifies the rightful and positive impact that a social media platform can have when the world is in the grip of an unprecedented crisis.

Bollywood 90s Jamming set for April 26 at Bharat Mandapam
Live sing-along event in Delhi sees strong ticket demand on BookMyShow
MUMBAI: Rewind, press play and suddenly, it’s the 90s all over again. Bollywood 90s Jamming is set to take over Bharat Mandapam on April 26, 2026, promising a full-blown nostalgia trip for Delhi’s music lovers. Curated as a tribute to Bollywood’s golden musical era, the event will feature a live performance by India Music Collective, known for turning concerts into participative experiences where audiences don’t just listen, they sing along, often word for word. The format leans into collective nostalgia, blurring the line between performer and crowd.
Organised by Brand Spotify Marketing & Event Agency, the event is being led by a team comprising Rohan Sharma, Mishita Batra, Akshita Jain and Ravneet Kaur, who are positioning it as more than just a concert, an immersive throwback to an era when music was as much about memory as melody.
Early indicators suggest the pitch is landing. Tickets, currently live on BookMyShow, are witnessing strong demand, pointing to a packed evening where retro hits meet a new-age audience eager to relive them in unison.
Set against the expansive backdrop of Bharat Mandapam, the event is designed to recreate the communal energy of 90s Bollywood where lyrics were instantly recognisable and emotions universally shared. As the city gears up for April 26, the promise is simple, a night where thousands gather not just to hear the music, but to become part of it.
For Delhi, it’s shaping up to be less of a concert and more of a collective memory set to a soundtrack everyone already knows by heart.
