Late Thursday night, Alia Bhatt revealed that she tested positive for COVID-19. She shared the news on her Instagram Story and wrote, "I have isolated myself and will be under home quarantine. I am following all safety protocols under the advice of my doctors." Earlier in the day, Bhatt was papped with beau Ranbir Kapoor. It is said that they were dubbing for Brahmastra. Kapoor was spotted in public for the first time after testing negative. On March 9, his mother Neetu Kapoor had posted that he had contracted the virus. At that time, Bhatt had also undergone the test, which was negative. Now, RK has fully recovered, but his ladylove has to stay alone.

"Hello all, I have tested positive for Covid-19. I have immediately isolated myself and will be under home quarantine. I am following all safety protocols under the advice of my doctors. Grateful for all your love and support. Please stay safe and take care," Alia wrote on Instagram Stories on Thursday night.

Alia's rumoured boyfriend, actor Ranbir Kapoor, had got infected with Covid a few weeks back. However, he has now recovered.

Alia has multiple films lined up. She will be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "Gangubai Kathiawadi". The film is slated to hit screens on July 30. She is also part of Ayan Mukerji's "Brahmastra", which also stars Ranbir.

Alia will also be seen in SS Rajamouli's "RRR", Karan Johar's "Takht" and Jasmeet K. Reen's "Darlings", which she has co-produced with Shah Rukh Khan.
