Who I am, how important I am, what I have achieved, and when it isn't there, you are just another living thing, like a worm, a bird. Nothing at all. Just going to live, you're going to be born, live and die, as simple as that. "And the phone creates so much of an artificial existence for you.

But I completely understand this fixation with your phone, how much it obstructs your health and optimisation," Samantha Ruth Prabhu said.
