Actor Amit Sarin, who relocated to America a few years back, is down with coronavirus. Unfortunately, his wife Vineesha and their two kids also tested COVID-positive. Speaking about the tough time they're going through, Amit says, "It's been 6 days now that I along with Vineesha and kids have tested positive. Mentally, it was a jolt initially, but the good thing was that we were asymptomatic. And that is the silver lining."

Speaking about the precautions the family has been taking, Amit adds, "We have immediately boosted our intake of vitamin C and D and zinc. Lots of water and fresh vegetarian food. This will definitely help us overcome the deadly virus."

The actor is also being extra cautious, he says, "Though we have developed antibodies naturally without a vaccine and won't be infectious to others but we are not going to take that for granted and follow the rules by wearing masks, washing hands regularly and maintaining social distancing till we are vaccinated. Our daily routine has been same, we are doing mostly the same thing which we had been doing the entire pandemic for last 8 months and spending lots of time together."
