Ranvir Shorey's son Haroon tests positive for Covid after Goa holiday, has no symptoms

Actor Ranvir Shorey and actress Konkona Sensharma's 10-year-old Haroon tested positive for the coronavirus on Tuesday.

The 49-year-old star took to social media to confirm that they were on a holiday in Goa, and contracted the virus while returning home. During the routine RT-PCR testing, Shorey Jr's report showed that he had tested positive.

The actor said that the father-son duo are asymptomatic and have quarantined themselves until further investigations.


Urging the people of the country to stay safe, he wrote, "The wave is real."

In a series of tweets, Shorey also said that they plan to get retested today to rule out any false positives.

Replying to a media report, he said that while he is fully vaccinated, his son isn't since there are no vaccines available for 10-year-olds.

The 'Bheja Fry' star got his first shot of the Covid vaccine on May 22, and the second jab was somewhere around August-end.
