Kapanlagi.com - In recent weeks, the news about the spread of the corona virus or COVID-19 has become increasingly worrying. As an active social media user, Joko Anwar initially followed the developments that were happening.

However, he gradually felt that the news was quite disturbing. Therefore, this famous director chose to limit the news that needs to be read.

"I am restricting myself, restricting reading news about COVID-19. In my opinion, it needs to be limited because if not, it will keep bothering us," Joko said during a live Instagram session with CGV Cinemas.

1. Impact on Mental Health

Not only does it keep people constantly worried, Joko Anwar feels that reading news about this pandemic makes him feel suffocated. It even disturbs his mental state.

"Last week I felt suffocated, not because of anything, but my mental state was affected. So now I limit myself," said the director of a series of films that have been watched by millions of eyes.

During self-quarantine, Joko Anwar rewatched old titles. Of course, he didn't just watch any film, he chose those related to happy memories from the past.

"Now I really enjoy rewatching films that make my heart happy. Watching films from the 90s when I was a teenager, films that bring joy, especially those that remind me of the people I love," concluded this man from Medan.
