Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has tested positive for Coronavirus and quarantined himself at his Mumbai residence, confirmed the actor’s spokesperson.
“Mr Aamir Khan has tested positive for COVID-19. He is at home in self-quarantine, following all the protocols and he’s doing fine. All those who came in contact with him in the recent past should get themselves tested as a precautionary measure. Thank you for all your wishes and concern,” said the spokesperson, according to The Indian Express.
Earlier this month, actors Ranbir Kapoor, Manoj Bajpayee, Tara Sutaria, and Kartik Aaryan contracted the virus.
Khan was shooting for Laal Singh Chaddha, a Hindi remake of Tom Hanks’ 1994 drama Forrest Gump. The much-awaited film also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead role. Advait Chandan is calling the shots.
Most recently Khan was seen in a music video for the song ‘Har Funn Maula’ with Elli AvrRam from Koi Jaane Na, a psychological thriller with Kunal Kapoor and Amyra Dastur.
Laal Singh Chaddha is scheduled to release on Christmas 2021.
