"In the interest of putting any rumours to rest, I have tested negative for COVID-19. Thank you all for your concern and good wishes," Anil Kapoor tweeted on Friday.
Varun, Neetu Kapoor and Anil Kapoor, as well as actress Kiara Advani, are part of Raj Mehta's unit at the Chandigarh outdoor of the film. On Friday, rumour had spread in sections of social media that Anil Kapoor has also tested Covid positive. Denying unconfirmed reports that her father Anil has tested positive, Sonam Kapoor has subsequently tweeted: "False reporting is dangerous. I'm sitting in london and I see incorrect information peddled by some parts of the media before I can even speak to my father. Please be responsible in your reportage."
The film also features Maniesh Paul and YouTube sensation Prajakta Koli, who makes her Bollywood debut with the role.
