The veteran actor again refuses to get her test done despite the fact that all her close contacts have been confirmed positive with Covid-19.

Last week, a security guard in Rekha residence was tested positive to the coronavirus. He was then transported to a quarantine facility while BMC advised the legendary actress to get the test done as soon as possible.

Rekha replied them that she would test it by herself and submit report to them accordingly. A few days passed by and her test result hasn’t been sent to BMC.

Rekha 1 — Rekha is considered a statue of beauty at the age of 60s.

Before that, officials had conducted tests for all the staff members at Rekha’s bungalow and their results came yesterday. Two house helps, and four more watchmen were confirmed positive. Nine more people in close contact with these cases are waiting for the test results. However, the officials doubt they have probably infected as these staff often meet others on a daily basis.

As for Rekha, she said that she didn’t come in close contact with any of her staff. Nor she gets her test done as BMC’s recommendation. When the officials arrived at her bungalow, no one opened the door.

Rekha 2 — Rekha and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, two statues of beauty in Bollywood.

The accommodation of house staff was sealed; the house of filmmaker Zoya Akhtar was also sealed but Rekha’s bungalow is not touched.

The entrance of her house was sanitized by BMC though the sanitization crew could only get their work done on the outside of the door.

The actress informed BMC officials that she has been in home isolation for several weeks and she would get her test done herself.

The residence of filmmaker Zoya Akhtar is also sealed after Rekha's house members test positive.

Rekha was born in October 10, 1954, which means she is 65 years old. Her age group is classified among the most vulnerable groups to coronavirus as well as some respiratory diseases.

Earlier this week, several Indian actors were announced positive with the virus, including the famous Bachchan family. All three generations of the household got infected, ranging from Amitabh Bachchan, his son Abhishek, his daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai and his granddaughter.
