Akshay Kumar tests positive for COVID-19, misses Anant Ambani-Radhika Merchant wedding

Actor Akshay Kumar, known for his disciplined lifestyle and dedication, has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss the highly anticipated wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant today. Kumar, who has been busy promoting his latest film Sarfira, felt unwell and decided to get tested after some crew members from his promotional team tested positive.

"Akshay Kumar had been promoting his latest release Sarfira when he felt unwell, and decided to get tested after being told that some crew members of his promotions team had tested positive for COVID-19. The actor tested positive on Friday morning, and would end up missing the last leg of promotions, as well as Anant Ambani’s wedding for which Anant had personally gone to invite him. It’s disappointing but the responsible guy that Akshay is, he has immediately isolated himself," a source revealed.

The onset of monsoon has seen a resurgence of COVID-19 cases, and Akshay is among the many affected. His absence will be felt at the wedding, which is set to be a star-studded event attended by numerous members of the film fraternity. Despite the setback, fans are hopeful for his quick recovery. Akshay's much-anticipated film Sarfira released today, and the actor's health remains a priority as he isolates and recuperates.
