Veteran actor Satish Shah took to Twitter and informed about receiving the first jab of the coronavirus vaccine at a vaccination center in Mumbai. The actor also wrote that he stood for three hours in a queue for his turn and later got “scolded” by the authorities for not availing the VIP entrance.  Sharing the information about his first dose, the actor wrote, “#COVID19Vaccination stood for 3hrs. In the hot Sun at BKC n got it done. Total chaos outside but very disciplined inside. Got politely scolded for not availing VIP entrance but felt good behaving like RK Lakshman’s common man.” 

The 69-year-old actor had tested COVID-19 positive last year in July, for which he was also admitted to the Lilavati hospital in Mumbai for eight days. Shah was later advised home quarantine. The actor later thanked the medical authorities for their care and attention and also appealed to people to get themselves admitted to a hospital as soon as they test positive for COVID-19 to avoid any complications. Yesterday, Kamal Haasan also received his first dose of vaccination.  He took to Twitter to share the news while encouraging others to do the same right away. “Sri Ramachandra Hospital I got vaccinated. Everyone who cares not just about themselves but also about others should get the vaccination immediately. Today immunization of body, next month vaccination against corruption. Get ready (sic),” tweeted the 66-year-old acting legend, while sharing the picture of him receiving the jab. Satish Shah was last seen on screen in Saif Ali Khan-starrer comedy Humshakals in 2014. His last television appearance was Comedy Circus in 2007.
