Actress Natasha Suri has tested positive for COVID-19. Speaking to BT, she says, “Around six days ago, I had gone to Pune for some urgent work. After I came back, I fell ill and had fever, sore throat and weakness. I underwent a test three days ago, which came positive. Currently, I am in home quarantine. I still have fever and weakness. I am on medication and also taking immunity boosters.I live with my grandmother and sister, so I will get them tested, too.”
Natasha will now have to skip the promotions of her upcoming film, ‘Dangerous’, which releases on MX Player. The movie also features Bipasha Basu and Karan Singh Grover. She shares, “The promotions were to begin from August 10, and I am very sad that I won’t be able to participate in them. Nonetheless, I am excited about the project, sharing screen space with some very good actors and working with such a great team. I want to dedicate my performance in the film to my mother. Everything that I do in my life is to make her proud, that’s always been my aim. I believe that every opportunity that has come to me is because of her blessings. This film, too, is also a blessing from her.” Natasha made her acting debut with the Malayalam film, ‘King Liar’ in 2016, which starred south superstar Dileep.
‘Dangerous’ will mark Bipasha’s return to films after a gap of around six years. She was last seen in ‘Creature 3D’, which had hit the screen in 2014. Talking about working with the actress, Natasha says, “I am thrilled that I got to work with Bipasha. She is one of the most beautiful actresses in the industry. She is a wonderful co-star, and so is Karan. They are lovely to work with.”
Though Natasha doesn’t want to reveal much about her role in the film, which has been directed by Bhushan Patel, she tells us, “I play Gauri, and my role in the movie is fabulous. Mikaji (Singh) offered me this role after he spotted me at an event. I am glad that he believed in me and the fact that I could play this part with conviction.”
