Kanika Kapoor Coronavirus Row: Rishi Kapoor questions the hotel owners about the singer escaping screening

Netizens were left in a huge shock when Kanika Kapoor revealed that she has tested COVID-19 positive on her social media handle. Since then everyone has been talking about how did she escape the screening at the airport and why did she party with hundreds of people at the Taj Hotel in Lucknow.

The veteran actor of Bollywood, Rishi Kapoor has now questioned the hotel owners on not having a proper screening facility for the visitors.

The ‘Baby Doll’ singer, Kanika Kapoor was seen partying with her industry friends and few politicians were also present at the same bash. The singer had apparently missed the coronavirus screening at the airport when she returned from London. Putting everyone’s health at risk, she partied with a large crowd, as eventually, she tested positive of deadly COVID-19 virus.

Questioning how the singer escaped screening even at the 5-star hotel, Rishi Kapoor posted a tweet addressing the hotel’s owners. Check out what he said.

Think. Chalo Delhi airport se to nikal gayi. Why an establishment like The Taj Lucknow Hotel didn’t have the facility to screen visitors? After all the Taj is a huge name and a property. Surely they could have detected!

Rishi also joked saying that “Aajkal Kapoor logon pe time bhaari hai”.

Soon the owners of the Taj Hotel took to their official Twitter handle and gave clarification regarding the actual scenario. Their post read- “At all our hotels, we have undertaken extensive precautionary measures including thermal screening of all guests, staff and vendors. At the time of check-in, her temperature was found to be normal. The safety and wellbeing of our guests and associates are of paramount importance.”

Replying to the hotel, Rishi asked them to share the details with the media as Kanika is being victimised. “I appreciate, believe and respect The Taj Hotels has for all its guests regarding safety and security. Please tell this to the Media and the concerned Government. Unnecessarily the lady concerned is being victimized. With your strict measures surely she wasn’t carrying the virus,” he wrote.
