Dr Jalil Parker of Lilavati Hospital confirmed the news and told Times of India, “Zarina had pain in joints, bodyache, fatigue and fever. And, her oxygen level was low when we admitted her.” He later added, “She has gone home. She is much better now.” She is reportedly isolating at her home. It is not known if she has tested negative since.

Zarina’s son Sooraj Pancholi was in the news when his name came up in connection to the death of Disha Salian. Defending her son, Zarina had said: “I want to laugh it off as well as feel bad. People have so much free time during the lockdown, that they say anything about anyone. They are connecting past events, whereas he (Sooraj Pancholi) has never met that girl (Disha Salian). He keeps saying that he has not met her ever and still people do not believe.”
