Talking to a leading daily, Ronit Roy said that post the lockdown in March 2020, he had decided to shut down his security agency. However, he decided to keep the employees on the roster as they were all in need of funds for personal reasons. He said his clients, the “so-called stars”, went away. He said that only Amitabh Bachchan and Akshay Kumar stood by him during the lockdown and he is grateful to them.

Ronit further said that when work resumed he asked his 110 employees to return to their duties. However, 40 of them declined as they did not want to come back from their hometowns.
