In the midst of COVID-19 and self-isolation being practiced across the country, Under 25 is all set to bring the best of inspirations with Yami Gautam, Aalaya Furniturewala and Vir Das on their first-ever digital summit– Pyjama Edition happening on 4th-6th April 2020. Practicing self-distancing comes with some perks like staying in your ‘Pyjamas’ all day. From waking up and figuring out what to wear to college or work and now just waking up and deciding what to wear to your living room. Things change overnight but not your ‘Pyjamas’. Reinforcing the importance of ‘Pyjamas’, Under 25 is coming to you in the comfort of your home.
Commenting on this unique initiative, Alaya Furniturewala said, “Given the current situation where everyone has to practice self-isolation, it’s great to see Under 25 think outside the box and host their first-ever online summit. It’s thrilling to be a part of such an initiative and I’m glad that we will be able to do something unique during this lockdown. I’m looking forward to having a fun and interactive chat”

This three-day digital festival will cover topics from food, design, music, content creation, film, mental health etc. Founded by Anto Philip and Shreyans Jain, Under 25 is a youth movement platform that creates specifically curated experiences for India’s young teens and adults.
“These have easily been the craziest three weeks of the lives of many combating the coronavirus threat world over. As we’re all keeping ourselves updated on the pandemic at home, the reality feels like a movie. The self-isolation mandate has hit a pause on our hectic schedules. All of this solitary time makes me reflect on the things that are taken for granted. This is a self-discovery of sorts. A platform like this in times like these can help to show a better and productive side of social media. Under 25 Summit is contributing at its best in such tough times by connecting everyone and keeping people positive”, exclaimed Yami Gautam

The sense of good vibes and feeling cozy in the comfort of our safe space is all we need”, feels Anto Philip, Co-founder, Under 25.
