Sharing the picture, Varun wrote, “Gujarat. Woke up showing symptoms, rapid tested and now going to get RTPCR tested. Team is currently working on new dates for the Gujarat show. We’re gonna try and come back in a few weeks whenever the venues are available. Your tickets will be refunded if you’d like. Sorry Gujarat! I’m super sad about this, but I hope to see you real soon. I hope you’ll come back on the new dates.”
Singer Sophie Choudry said, “Damnnn! Get well soon.” Comedian Sharul Channa said, “You have a double degree in Covid now too. Get well soon.” One fan said, “Don't be sad brother. It's a sign. Get some rest. The world can wait. Get well soon. Love you.” While one wrote, “For a second I thought that was a pregnancy test. Feel better,” another one dropped “Get well soon.”
Earlier this year in January, Vir had tested positive for Covid-19. Sharing the news, he wrote, "Right. I've tested positive for Covid-19. Mild symptoms. Aches and a sore throat. Isolated at home. Had only been in contact with two other people in the last month and thankfully they are both negative. Now I am in a room. I have three pillows and a quilt. I'm seriously considering embroidery. Depending on how long this takes, I may wind up with no quilts and 6 pillows, or like 2 quilts. If I had to choose a market, I'd choose quilts over pillows, more exclusive. Almost everyone has a pillow they love. Not everyone has a nice quilt."
