Veteran Actor Kiran Kumar test negative for COVID 19

Actor Kiran Kumar who had tested positive for COVID 19 some time ago and was under home quarantine has finally tested negative for it.

The actor in an emotional statement says, “Its safe to say that things feel more than a little surreal at the moment. Never in our wildest dreams could we have imagined a dystopia like this would be our everyday reality. ”

He writes further, “A few weeks ago, I had to undergo a routine medical procedure for which, under the government’s guideline at the time, a covid 19 test was mandatory. My daughter accompanied me for the testing and we joked and laughed and generally remained upbeat, certain that this was just a formality and we would get on with our normal lives soon enough. The test results came positive. Within the hour, we cordoned off a floor at home and turned it into an isolation zone. The amazing doctors at Hinduja khar and Lilavati armed us with enough information to ensure panic would not set in. We informed the BMC of my status and amped up everyones vitamin intake.”

The actor informs, “ On Wednesday,  after being retested for Covid19, I am happy to say that I have tested negative.”

The actor’s family is still in home isolation. He says, “ I  was totally asymptomatic and apart from the boredom that accompanies isolation had no other complaints. I am continuing to take this forced time out as an opportunity to introspect and focus on life’s smaller pleasures.

The days are spent meditating, catching up on ample OTT content and reading books I’ve long forgotten I’d bought. We all held on to our  optimism and if theres one take away I have from this, is that there’s nothing to fear but fear itself. ”

Kumar said that a simple sneeze and cough also scares people. But added, “ts unfair to test peoples loyalty when your world feels like it’s caving in on you. It’s such a strange time that a seasonal sneeze or cough feels like something more sinister. As hard as it is for the people isolating, it’s tougher still for their caregivers.”

He also thanked his support staff for being there for him in these challenging times. “I’d like to say aloud and resonating thank you to all our support staff.”
