Many celebrities have tested positive for COVID-19 in March 2021 like Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Ranbir Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, Aamir Khan, Kartik Aaryan and R Madhavan. Veteran music composer Bappi Lahiri is the latest celebrity to have tested positive for the virus.

Soon after, his daughter Rema Lahiri Bansal also released a statement assuring fans that her father will be home soon. She thanked his fans for keeping Bappi in their prayers.
In the statement, she said, "Bappi Da has exercised immense precaution but has been detected with mild Covid symptoms. He has been admitted under the care of Dr Udwadia at Breach Candy Hospital purely as a precautionary measure due to his age. He will be fine and home soon. Thank You for keeping him in your prayers always."
