10 days back, the actor Arjun Rampal and the team of his upcoming Zee5 film, Nail-Polish had started shooting to the film. All was fine, until Arjun’s co-stars, Manav Kaul and Anand Tiwari tested COVID-19 positive. As a result, Arjun took a COVID test too, which has come out as negative.
This comes, a day after his co-stars had tested positive for the virus. He is currently under home quarantine but will have to take a test after 4 days again since he came in direct contact with COVID patients.
The actor tweeted this, with his tweet as follows :
Good news, I am Covid negative. Have to retest in 4 days according to medical experts as I have been in direct contact with active Covid cases. Thank you all for your love, support and prayers 🙏🏽

Arjun had informed his fans on Thursday, via Instagram, that shooting for the film has stopped, as his co-stars got infected.
The film is a Zee5 Original, which director Bugs Bhargava Krishna is directing. Arjun plays the role of a high-profile defense lawyer, Sid Jaisingh in the film. A courtroom drama, the film promises to be an exciting thriller.
Producing the film are Pradeep Uppoor, Seema Mohapatra, Jahanara Bhargava of Ten Years Younger Productions, and Dhirajj Vinodd Kapoor.
While talking about the film, Arjun had earlier said :
“With a wonderful cast combined with very addictive energy and clarity of the director Bugs Bhargava Krishna, this is a project that is extremely promising and allows everyone to push one’s limits to a level, that hopefully shall transform itself into something very special.”
With a grinding halt, the film is stopped, proving the fact that filming is no easy job, during a pandemic. We hope that Arjun’s co-stars recover soon and everyone stays safe.
