Television actors Karan Patel, Aamna Sharif and Shubhaavi Choksey have tested negative for Covid-19. They took the test after their Kasautii Zindagii Kay co-star Parth Samthaan tested positive for the virus on Sunday.

According to a report in The Times of India, Karan’s publicist issued a statement saying, “Karan Patel’s swab test has come out negative and all is good. He requests all to stay safe and get their tests done even if mild symptoms. Better to be safe than sorry.”

Meanwhile, Pooja Banerjee, who plays Nivedita Basu in the show, has also tested negative for Covid-19. Her publicist told SpotboyE, “Pooja Banerjee’s test result is negative and she is safe and healthy. She urges everyone to stay safe and not wander unless absolutely needed.”
