Neelesh Deepak, a theatre artist, watches a rehearsal of an upcoming show he is managing at a theatre in New Delhi, India, Tuesday, March 16, 2021. First, his food supplies ran scarce. Then he couldn’t pay his apartment’s rent. Out of money, he eventually returned to his village to stay with his parents, biding time to cope with never seen before isolation. When Deepak returned back to the Indian capital in October, things had changed. Most theatres had closed. Upcoming shows were suspended indefinitely and thousands of his peers had no jobs. His struggle continued for months until he eventually joined a nonprofit group as a researcher. His income plummeted from between $500 to $600 a month to a little more than $150. He struggles just to buy food. (AP Photo/Altaf Qadri)
