MUMBAI: Neil Bhatt, who is seen in Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, has tested COVID-19 positive. Rajesh Ram Singh, producer of the show said, "Yes, it is true. Neil had mild symptoms since yesterday while we were shooting the Holi sequence in the show. However, as he told us, we immediately stalled the shoot and Neil got himself tested on Wednesday. Today the reports came positive and he informed us in the afternoon. Even though we have a bank of episodes, they are not enough to handle Neil's absence. While we will resume the shoot soon after all the actors are tested, we are working on a parallel track for the show. The Holi sequence has been put on hold at the moment."

The actor plays the role of ACP Virat Chavan in the serial. He was in the news some time ago for his personal life. He fell in love with his co-actress, Aishwarya Sharma, from the show. They got engaged and had a roka ceremony at Mahidpur in January this year.

“We have been shooting together since September last year. We enjoyed each other’s company and became friends. We always intended to take our relationship seriously right from the word go. It was always for a long-term relationship and not the usual short-lived one. We didn’t even ask each other out. We realised that something was brewing between us, but we wanted it to grow into something serious,” Neil had shared earlier.
