The producer, Rajan Shahi has launched a press release that confirms the experiences and it says, “Actors Swati Chitnis, Sachin Tyagi, Samir Onkar, who are an integral part of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, have tested positive for COVID-19, but the three of them are asymptomatic. Due to safety reasons, they are in-home quarantine. BMC had advised them for the same as they were showing no symptoms. Immediately, the entire on-crew team was isolated and tested. Four crew members have now tested positive. The BMC has been informed and the entire set has been sanitized and fumigated. Currently, all of them are receiving medical attention in-home quarantine. We are constantly in touch with them as their health is our priority. We stand by our commitment to safety and will continue to ensure that all safety and precautionary measures are adhered to.”
Swati, who plays dadi to Mohsin Khan’s Kartik, assured that she is doing well. “I have been monitoring my vitals from time to time and hopefully I will bounce back soon,” she asserted, all praise for her producer for taking care of all the actors on set. Samir has isolated himself and is focused on his diet and breathing exercises. “For the first time in my life. I feel being positive is not so cool,” he quipped.
