Kriti Sanon, the bubbly actress who stole our hearts with her performance in Dilwale and Bareilly ki Barfi, has reportedly tested positive for coronavirus. She was recently shooting for her upcoming movie in Chandigarh with Rajkumar Rao and returned home only a few days back. There’s been no official statement from her side but the reports have come from a close source.

It’s been almost a year since the world was introduced to this novel virus and it has already affected millions of people. Many have lost their lives to it as well. The data is heartbreaking but people have continued behaving in an ignorant way. This has resulted in many countries facing a second wave which is proving to be deadlier than the first one. Yet, many people are not even practising basic precautions like wearing masks or observing a 6-feet distance in public spaces.

The virus, as it turns out, doesn’t discriminate and has affected people of all age groups. In fact, it has affected some of our beloved actors as well. Here are 5 Bollywood stars that have tested positive for it:

1. Tamannaah Bhatia

She was reportedly shooting for a web series when she was tested positive for coronavirus in August. The Bahubali actress was taken to a hospital where she was treated till she tested negative.

2. Arjun Kapoor

Arjun Kapoor took to social media to announce that he tested positive for the virus and is undergoing treatment for the same.

3. Malaika Arora

Right after her beau announced the news on social media, Malaika Arora informed her fans of her diagnosis as well. The yogini had tested positive for coronavirus in September and fought hard to come out of it.

4. Bachchan family

Fans were shocked when the whole Bachhan family, including Amitabh, Abhishek, Aishwarya and Aaradhya tested positive for the virus. Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan were hospitalised early on but the mother-daughter chose to self-quarantine before getting admitted.

5. Himansh Kohli

Famous for his role in Yaariyan, Himash Kohli was tested for coronavirus after his family’s results came out positive. He tested negative initially, but was tested again after experiencing some symptoms of the deadly virus. The second result came out to be positive and he shared the news on his Instagram account.

No matter how old you are or who you are, coronavirus can affect you if you’re not taking enough precautions. Hence, it is important to stay protected from it.

Recently, the US-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended 6 steps to fight the virus.
