Amitabh Bachchan tests positive for coronavirus

Amitabh Bachchan has been shifted to the Nanavati Hospital in Mumbai after testing positive for coronavirus on Saturday.

The Bollywood megastar confirmed his coronavirus diagnosis on Twitter and asked all those who have been in close proximity to him to get tested for Covid-19

“I have tested Covid positive. Shifted to Hospital. Family and staff undergone tests, results awaited. All that have been in close proximity to me in the last 10 days are requested to please get themselves tested,” Amitabh Bachchan said in a tweet.

Doctors have confirmed that Amitabh Bachchan was symptomatic and was self-isolating at home before being taken to the Nanavati Hospital on Saturday evening.

While the senior actor had been staying at home ever since the lockdown began on March 25, he had recently shot promotional content for the quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati and other projects at his home and hence had contact with the production crew who came to his house.
