Even as ace Bollywood producer Karan Johar celebrated his 48th birthday today at home with his family,  he also shared news about a covid scare in his household amidst the lockdown.
Apparently,  two of his staff members at home tested positive for the covid 19 virus. Johar lives in Mumbai with his mom Hiroo Johar and twin kids, Yash and Roohi.

Johar put out a clarification on social media for concerned fans and reassured them that the necessary quarantine measures have been taken and the family members andrestof the staff  are safe:



I'd like to inform you that 2 members of our household staff have tested positive for Covid-1 9. As soon as the symptoms were detected, 
they were put under quarantine in a section of our building.The BMC was informed immediately, and the building has been fumigated and sterilised by them as per the norms. 

The rest of us in the family and the staff are all safe and display no symptoms. We have all taken the swab test this morning and have 
tested negative, but will remain in self isolation for the next 14 days for the safety of everyone around us. We stand by our commitment to safeguard everyone and have ensured that all measures prescribed by the authorities have been strictly adhered to. 

We will also ensure that the best treatment and care is provided to them during the illness, and we're sure that they will be fighting fit soon! 

These are difficult times but by staying in our homes and taking the right precautions, there is no doubt in my mind that we can defeat this virus. Stay home everyone and stay safe. 

- Karan Johar 

It maybe recalled that recently Valimai producer Boney Kapoor's staff member too had been quarantined due to the virus.

We wish the staff a speedy  recovery.
