The wrath of the novel coronavirus doesn't seem to end anytime soon. Even after taking multiple precautions, the deadly virus has affected a lot of people including TV celebrities. Recently, actor Rrahul Sudhir from the show Ishq Mein Marjawan 2 was tested positive and now the news of his co-star Chandni Sharma being diagnosed with COVID-19 has come out.
Apart from them, a few more people from the cast and crew of the same show including director Noel Smith have been tested positive for the virus.
A source informed TOI, "Since we have a sufficient bank of episodes, we could easily take a six-day break. The entire set has been fumigated and sanitised. We will resume shooting this week.”
Earlier, one more statement by the producers was released when Rrahul was diagnosed with the disease. The makers of the show said, "Rrahul tested positive today. He is in quarantine now and we hope that he recovers soon and resumes work."
Apart from that, Rajesh Kumar, who gained popularity for playing Rosesh Sarabhai in Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, had also tested COVID positive. This happened when the actor was shooting for his upcoming comedy show, Excuse Me Madam. He is now reportedly asymptomatic and is being treated at home.
Earlier, Kasautii Zindagi Kay lead actor Parth Samthaan had also tested positive for the deadly disease. After the news, the shoot of the show came to a standstill and many of Parth’s co-stars and crew members got themselves tested for the virus. That’s not all, a crew member of producer JD Majethia’s show Bhakharwadi passed away after battling with COVID-19 in July.
