Looks like the Coronavorus pandemic has stricken the entertainment industry once again. It all started with singer Kanika Kapoor contracting the virus and she was the first from the industry to become a victim of the pandemic. The news was soon followed by Karim Morani and daughter Zoa and also actor Purab Kohli. In fact, Sara Khan Ali and Boney Kapoor's household had also tested positive for COVID-19 when it was in its community-spread stage. The latest to join the list was actor Kiran Kumar who not only battled but also recovered from the pandemic.

Shibasish's hospitalisation comes at a crucial time when the government finally allowed the resuming of shoots of films and televisi a great deal of rules and regulations in place in order to ensure the well being and safety of everyone right from actors to the daily wage workers working on the sets. We too wish Mr Shibasish Sarkar a quick recovery from the pandemic.
