Ram Setu actor Akshay Kumar had tested positive for COVID-19. Informing his followers, he wrote in a statement, "I wish to inform everyone that, earlier this morning, I have tested positive for COVID-19. Following all protocols, I have immediately isolated myself. I'm under home quarantine and have sought necessary medical care." Following suit, co-stars Jacqueline Fernandez and Nushrratt Bharuccha also isolated themselves.

After Akshay's diagnosis, 45 of 100 crew members also tested positive. Jacqueline got tested as a precaution and has tested negative after staying in isolation the entire time.

A source close to Jacqueline said, "Jacqueline isolated herself as soon as she got the news of Akshay testing positive for Covid. She underwent the RT-PCR test twice to be sure, and has tested negative in both the rounds."

Nushrratt earlier shared a screenshot of a conference call with Akshay and Jacqueline and wrote, "Checking up on each other. Far apart but together in spirit."
