DHAKA: According to a report on Bollywoodlife.com, after Sonam Kapoor tested positive for swine flu, her ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo’ co-star, Salman Khan will also be screened for the H1N1 virus.
The two were reportedly shooting for the film in Rajkot before Sonam was diagnosed with the dreaded flu, says The Times of India.
The reports state that Sonam was possibly infected by her personal trainer who had contracted the virus and Salman was worried as he too was working in close quarters with the actress.
Since swine flu is an airborne disease and is highly contagious, it is only natural that the actor is being cautious.
Sonam Kapoor tested positive for swine flu on February 28. Rajkot district collector Manisha Chandra was the one to confirm reports about Sonam having tested positive for H1N1 virus.
Sonam flew out of Rajkot in a chartered plane and is being treated for the flu.
However, this is not the first time that the actress was out of action due to health reasons.
