Post the confirmation, I have quarantined myself where I am taking necessary precautions. Humble request to the one’s who have come in my contact to get themselves tested at the earliest! and urge people to wear mask and continue to follow the Covid protocols.”
When Nikki Tamboli’s health began to fail, she was in Delhi filming the video for her song. She had a high fever, a cold that was quite bad, and a cough that hurt her chest and body. ” I neglected the symptoms initially assuming it’s a weather change. However, when I was coming back to Mumbai on my flight, I just couldn’t breathe at one point. My head was blasting in pain but I had to keep quiet as I didn’t want to make others uncomfortable,” she said.
Her followers wished for the actor’s quick recovery in the comments section. They also wish her well and send prayers her way.
Last year, Covid had taken her family, including her younger brother Jatin. When the unique coronavirus attacked her brother, he was 29 years old. After her brother’s passing, Nikki had written a letter to her parents that read: “Dear God, please give them strength. Hope I make you both more and more proud day by day & I’ll try to keep this smile on your face throughout. I have no idea how my dad is dealing with all this as he had major two-loss.. 14 days back his mother passed away and now his son. I pray & give all my strength to my Dad & Mom.”
