Prithviraj who has been shooting for his next Jana Gana Mana since October 7 was tested along with his crew ahead of the beginning of the schedule and also after the shoot was wrapped up. "Hello everyone! I've been shooting for Dijo Jose Anthony's "Jana Gana Mana'' since the 7th of October. We had strict protocols in place with regards to COVID regulations and associated safety measures. As is the norm, all involved in the shoot were tested before the schedule started and after the last day of shoot in the courtroom set we had put up, tests were repeated. Unfortunately, the test results this time came back positive and I have gone into isolation. I'm asymptomatic and am doing fine now. All primary and secondary contacts have been advised to isolate and get tested. Hoping to recover soon and get back to work ASAP. Cheers and thanks for the love and concern," he wrote.
