Tanusri Dasgupta, the creative head of Ekta Kapoor’s production house Balaji Telefilms, has tested positive for Covid-19. In an interview with India Forums, Tanusri revealed that her oxygen levels were down when she was brought to the hospital on Saturday. She said that the doctors advised her to stay at the hospital since her mother, too, has been tested positive and has been asked to quarantine at home.
Tanusri said that it was ‘scary’ initially but she is confident that she will be back on her feet soon. “I caught a deeper strain I think and had to be admitted. The staff here has been extremely helpful in nursing me back to health. I still have a cough due to bronchitis and am being treated for the same. Yes, it was scary for a few days, but if you are in good hands there is no fear. We all are recovering and I will be back home soon,” she said. Television actor Parth Samthaan also tested positive for Covid-19 on Sunday. The shoot of the Kasautii Zindagii Kay has been stopped with immediate effect. His co-stars Pooja Banerjee and Shubhavi Choksey were tested on Sunday.
