BOMBAY TIMES (September 12, 2020)

Aftab Shivdasani took to social media to tell people that he has tested positive for Coronavirus. The actor, who is currently under home quarantine, wrote, “Recently, I started showing minor symptoms of a dry cough and a mild fever and I got myself tested for COVID-19. Unfortunately, the results came out positive and under the medical supervision of doctors and the authorities, I have been advised home quarantine. I request all those who may have come in contact with me recently to please get yourself tested just to be safe. With your support and good wishes, I will recover soon and be back to normal.”

Aftab, who had started shooting a project, Poison 2, in Lonavala, further added, “I can’t emphasize more the need to socially be distant, use masks and sanitisers as much as possible as it can save lives. We will win this together (sic).”

Talking about Aftab testing positive for COVID-19, Zain Imam, who was shooting along with him, said, “We returned to Mumbai on Wednesday. The following day we learnt about Aftab testing positive for COVID-19, and so, we underwent a test, too. I hope the results are negative. I am taking precautions and not stepping out. I had a few meetings lined up, which I have cancelled now.”
