Earlier, Bollywood singer Kanika Kapoor of "Baby Doll" fame has been diagnosed with COVID-19 and has been admitted in hospital. She is kept under quarantine and is undergoing treatment for the same, making her the first Indian celeb to be tested positive for coronavirus. While Kapoor receiving her treatment at King George's hospital, Lucknow, Kanika spoke to Aaj Tak about how she has quarantined herself and why the accusations that she partied with 300-400 guests are completely baseless.
