A few days back, Mollywood superstar Prithviraj Sukumaran had tested positive for coronavirus while he was shooting for the movie ‘Jana Gana Mana’. And now, after one week, the actor has confirmed that he is free from the infection.

Even though tested negative for coronavirus, the actor revealed that he will be in quarantine for another seven days.

“Tested negative on the Antigen test today. Will still be continuing to isolate for one more week to be doubly sure. Once again, thanks to everyone who reached out and expressed care and concern,” wrote Prithviraj on his Facebook page.

The actor also shared the image of the test result on his Facebook page.

Apart from Prithviraj, Dijo Jose Antony, director of Jana Gana Mana, was also tested positive for coronavirus. As both of them were tested positive, the entire crew of the movie went into self-isolation.

Prithviraj is currently awaiting the release of his new movie ‘Aadu Jeevitham’. The film, directed by Blessy, is an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Benyamin. Prithviraj will be seen playing the role of Najeeb, an immigrant worker in Saudi Arabia, in Aadu Jeevitham.
