Shanaya
Kapoor
recently
took
to
social
media
to
inform
her
followers
that
she
has
tested
positive
for
COVID-19.
Her
diagnosis
comes
days
after
her
mother,
Maheep
Kapoor
contracted
the
virus
after
attending
a
private
dinner
at
Karan
Johar's
house.
Shanaya
took
to
her
Instagram
stories
and
wrote,
"I
have
tested
positive
for
Covid-19.
As
of
today,
I
have
mild
symptoms,
but
I'm
feeling
ok
and
have
isolated
myself.
I
had
tested
negative
four
days
ago
however,
while
testing
again
as
precaution
the
results
came
positive.
I
am
following
the
protocol
given
by
my
doctor
and
health
professionals.
If
you
have
been
in
contact
with
me,
request
you
to
please
get
tested.
Stay
safe
everyone."
Besides
Shanaya
and
Maheep
Kapoor,
Kareena
Kapoor
Khan,
Amrita
Arora
and
Sohail
Khan's
wife
who
had
attended
the
gathering
have
also
been
diagnosed
with
COVID-19.
On
the
other
hand,
Karan
Johar
and
his
family
have
tested
negative
for
the
virus.
On
Thursday,
the
filmmaker
took
to
his
Instagram
stories
to
reveal
the
same.
Further,
he
slammed
the
media
coverage
surrounding
the
gathering
at
his
house
and
mentioned,
"To
some
members
of
the
media,
I
would
like
(to)
clarify
that
an
eight
people
intimate
gathering
is
not
a
'party'
and
my
home,
which
we
maintain
strict
protocols
in,
is
certainly
no
'hotspot'
of
Covid.
All
of
us
are
responsible
and
masked
at
all
times
and
no
one
would
treat
this
pandemic
lightly.
My
request
to
certain
members
of
the
media
is
to
exercise
some
restraint
in
their
extreme
reportage
without
the
assessment
of
facts!
Lots
of
love
and
safety
to
all."
Previously,
Kareena's
spokesperson
had
denied
the
actress
flouting
COVID-19
norms
and
called
her
a
responsible
citizen.
Coming
back
to
Shanaya,
the
star
kid
is
being
launched
by
Karan
Johar
in
Bollywood
in
one
of
his
upcoming
productions.
The
film
has
already
hit
the
shooting
floors.
