With singer Kanika Kapoor showing signs of full recovery from the COVID 19 virus the stage is set for her return to Mumbai. Kanika’s colleagues in Mumbai’s music industry are happy to have her back.

Says Adnan Sami, “I’ve collaborated with Kanika before and I look forward to doing so again. What happened with Kanika was really unfortunate. Luckily she is out of it now. She and her family must be so relieved. I am happy that she has recovered.”

Bappi Lahiri who has just released a song on the Coronavirus says he was made to sound unnecessarily upset with her. “I never meant to sound so critical of her. I was told she had skipped quarantine after returning from abroad and I reacted emotionally. What happened to her could happen to anybody. I am really happy she has recovered. She is a nice person. I would love to work with her again.”

Says Vishal Dadlani, “I am glad for her. I hope no one she met has been infected. As for punitive measures against her for hiding her symptoms, I’m not sure how the law in UP works, but I assume if the CM can ignore the PM and hold a procession /ceremony on the very first night of the nationwide lockdown, Kanika is perhaps not the most crucial discussion.”

Adds Udit Narayan, “What she did, hiding her symptoms etc, was inexcusable as it endangered the lives of so many people. But no one should have to go through what she did. I am glad she has recovered.”

Adds Lalit Pandit: “I am glad she has recovered. I am certain that nothing was done on purpose but happened because of negligence on her part. Let’s hope people who came in contact with her during the isolation period are all well and doing well. Next time, please be more responsible and truthful.”
