Kiran Kumar tests negative for Coronavirus, says, “Corona felt like a looming, distant and scary phantom”

Veteran actor Kiran Kumar had recently tested positive for Coronavirus. Kumar was under quarantine at home. The 74-year-old had revealed that even though he had no symptoms of Covid-19 yet he tested positive for the virus on May 14 when he visited the hospital to get checked. Now, there’s good news for his fans as the actor has tested negative for the deadly virus.

Earlier the veteran actor had told PTI, “I am asymptomatic. On May 14, I went to the hospital for a medical check-up, where the Covid-19 test was mandatory. So I got myself tested and the result was positive but I had no symptoms then, nor do I have any now. There’s no fever, no cough, I’m fine and have self-quarantine.”

Now the ‘Dhadkan’ actor has tested negative for Covid-19 and he is really grateful to the doctors as he thanked them in his latest statement. The actor told Zee News, “It’s safe to say that things feel more than a little surreal at the moment. Never in our wildest dreams could we have imagined a dystopia like this would be our everyday reality.”

Further sharing about being a Coronavirus patient, he said, “We all held on to our optimism and if there’s one take away I have from this, is that there’s nothing to fear but fear itself. Corona felt like a looming, distant and scary phantom that we took every precaution to avoid and even then it found a way to enter what we thought was a completely sanitised space. Yet, here we are, dealing with it and getting on with our lives. It’s unfair to test people’s loyalty when your world feels like it’s caving in on you. It’s such a strange time that a seasonal sneeze or cough feels like something more sinister.”
