Neetu Kapoor recently confirmed that her son Ranbir Kapoor has tested positive for COVID-19 and has been quarantined ever since. His personal and professional plans have been pushed ahead till the actor recovers.

According to a report in a news portal, Ranbir had reportedly also planned a small get-together for ladylove Alia Bhatt’s birthday on March 15. Now, the celebrations will happen at a later date.

After Ranbir, even Sanjay Leela Bhansali tested positive for COVID-19. Following the same, Alia Bhatt also took the test as she has been closely working with the two. A source has confirmed to ETimes, “Alia takes the test nearly every day and today also she has tested negative but has still isolated herself. Ranbir Kapoor caught the virus on the sets of ‘Brahmastra’ and is recovering currently.”

Their upcoming Ayan Mukerji directorial ‘Brahmastra’ has been put on hold once again. Only Ranbir’s portions are reportedly remaining. The filmmaker won’t be resuming the final schedule until Ranbir has fully recovered and ready to bounce back. For him, Ranbir and the unit’s safety are of utmost importance.

Ayan Mukerji’s ‘Brahmastra’ went on floors in 2018 and ever since then it has been a difficult journey for the makers to make it to the finish line. The film was supposed to hit the theatres on December 4, 2020. However, the pandemic delayed the final works of the film. The revised date of the movie is yet to be announced.

‘Brahmastra’ brings together Ranbir and Alia for the first time on the silver screen. It also features Amitabh Bachchan, Dimple Kapadia, Nagarjuna Akkineni and Mouni Roy in key roles.
