Abstract: For nearly a year now, the unresolved Covid-19 pandemic threat and lockdown curbs have challenged human resourcefulness dimensionally and sometimes tectonically and affected our family relationship, outgoing leisure and travel concerns. Adapting mostly flexible or home-based working modes resulted in overdependence on digital interfaces, on-line problem solving, home delivery vending and such livelihood earning-styles; going out of home was greatly reduced. This reduced vehicular traffic, carbon emissions but increased air, water and pervading environment purity and an overall improvement in health and well-being, with less dependence on hospitals. Flexible working hours triggered “a perfect work-life balance”, reduced office / space overheads. Concentrating on medical and physical fitness, immunity foods, and personal hygiene and forced social distancing, family interpersonal relationships were boosted .Psychological stress and closed-up syndromes adversely affected both adults and more so small children who, however, also became more self-reliant and creative without easy or tangible support from elders, friends or teachers. The economic consequences like GDP at never before Minus 23.09%, tremendous losses of jobs, ancillary livelihood means of street vendors, many repairers, barbers etc., new socio-cultural challenges emerged. Additionally increased are cybercrime, domestic violence, and fraudulent tricksters. While luxury item businesses and hotel, entertainment, tourism, advertisement industries, common fruits and food items became cheaper with reduced public or on-road consumption. There are pros and cons, but lockdown has had cascading effects, some of which are benign like paradigm shift of conventional concepts on business opportunities, trouble-shooting, managing multifarious issues more efficiently.
