My special thanks to entire media for being so sensitive and co operative about it."

Amal Sherawat also appealed to his fans and social media followers not to panic and understand and follow guidelines that will help you stay safe from coronavirus.

In an interview with ETimes, Amal Sehrawat shared, "My father didn't have any symptoms, we took him to the hospital for some other problem. But when they tested him for COVID-19, the reports came out positive. After that, I saw him once for a brief period. He was in the ICU all this while and finally succumbed to cardiac arrest last month."

He also spoke of how coronavirus is a very unpredictable illness. "My father couldn't survive whereas my mother, despite being diabetic, got through it. She's fine now, physically as well as mentally. My father always called her the Iron Lady of our house and he was right."
