Kanika Kapoor on facing criticism after testing Covid-19 positive: My kids and I were getting death threats

Singer Kanika Kapoor was tested Covid-19 positive in March after she returned from London. Reports claimed that she went to many places without getting tested. Post which she was criticised by the public for her carelessness.

In an interview with SpotboyE, Kanika revealed that she and her children received death threats. After hearing all this, she was completely shaken.

Kanika said that phase was really very difficult not only for her but for her entire family. “The entire media and people turned against us for something which I myself was not aware of. So, obviously, I felt helpless. A lot of allegations were made on me. With time I also realised a lot of things. But all I felt was before writing anything about me or making any comments, they would have at least heard what the reality was. On the basis of rumours, you are throwing stones on somebody. How is it correct?”, she said.

Kanika further said, “During this phase, I was very sad and disturbed because I was getting death threats, my kids were getting threats like you should kill yourself. A lot of nasty messages were sent to us which was not nice. A lot of people also said that her career is finished. But nobody realised that she is a single mother and after doing so much of hard work and staying away from her kids. She has made this career.”
