Arjun Kapoor Opens Up About His COVID Journey; Says ‘I Am Fortunate That I Had Strong Support From My Family’

Just like the rest of the country, Bollywood has also been struck hard by novel coronavirus. Many celebrities have tested positive for the virus and took to their social media handles to share the news with their fans. Actor Arjun Kapoor also battled the virus a few months ago. He tested positive for COVID-19 on 6^th September and was under home quarantine for almost a month. On 7^th October the actor gave his fans a good news! He recovered, tested negative for coronavirus and also returned to work.

In a recent chat with Mid-Day, Arjun opened up about his battle with COVID-19. He shared, “I was diagnosed positive on a Sunday. I remember waking up the next day with slight fever, body ache, and was feeling fatigued while using the washroom. By Wednesday, it felt like a regular viral and the fever had subsided, but I felt sluggish and tired through the rest of the week. Emotionally, the recuperation is unique because nobody knows how to go about it. Even today, I am careful because the doctors have advised me to take it one day at a time.”

He went on to add that he does not know how badly his lungs were affected or how much his stamina is affected, but every once in a while he feels like someone who has recovered from a virus because the fatigue factor is real. The actor stated that he is young, but the senior family members might not be able to cope with this as easily we can. Arjun further shared, “I am fortunate that I had strong support from my family and that I had a house where I could live in isolation. I am grateful because not many people have that.”

Meanwhile on the work front, Arjun has many exciting projects in his kitty including Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar, Sardar and Grandson and Bhoot Police. We are super excited to see the actor back in action!
