Varun Dhawan confirms testing Covid 19 positive during shoot

The cast and crew of Jug Jug Jeeyo had to put a screeching halt on their Chandigarh filming schedule after lead actors Varun Dhawan, Neetu Kapoor and director Raj Mehta tested positive. While Anil Kapoor headed to Mumbai the same evening the news surfaced, Neetu Kapoor was reportedly brought to the city in an air ambulance. Varun Dhawan, however, has quarantined himself in Chandigarh and is currently in isolation.

On Monday, Varun took to social media to confirm that he had tested positive for coronavirus. The actor also opened up on what he's doing in isolation and the uncertainity of Covid 19 despite taking precautions.

All precautions were taken by the production but still nothing is certain in life especially not covid-19. So please be extra careful I believe I could have been more careful. I see the get well soon messages and my spirits are high taking each day at a time thank u (sic)."
