Actress Janhvi Kapoor and her sister Khushi Kapoor had tested positive for COVID-19 earlier, and are now safe as they have recovered and tested negative for the virus.
Janhvi took to Instagram Stories and wrote that she and her sister had tested positive for the virus on January 3, 2022. She said, “Hey guys! So me and my sister tested positive for COVID-19 on the 3rd of January. We have now completed the BMC required days of home isolation and have both tested negative. First two days were tough, and then every other day got better. The only way to protect ourselves from this virus is to mask up and vaccinate! Take care everyone! (sic)”
On January 9, Janhvi posted a series of pictures on Instagram, one of which had her lying in bed with a thermometer sticking out of her mouth. In another picture, she shared a photo of herself snuggled up in bed with Khushi. She captioned it, “That time of the year again (sic).”
Last month, Janhvi’s step-brother Arjun Kapoor, step-sister Anshula Kapoor, cousin Rhea Kapoor and her husband Karan Boolani had tested positive for COVID-19.

Meanwhile, Kollywood actor Sathyaraj, who was undergoing treatment for COVID-19 at a private hospital, has now been discharged.
