Mumbai: Bollywood actor, producer, director Karan Johar who held a grand party to celebrate his 50th birthday left nearly 50-55 guests infected with Covid-19, it was reported on Sunday.

The party was held at the Yash Raj Films studio at Andheri West in Mumbai. A host of B-town celebrities were in attendance like Hrithik Roshan, Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif, Kiara Advani, Janhvi Kapoor, Malaika Arora, Kareena Kapoor Khan among others.

But it looks like the grand celebration has come at a great cost. If the latest report in Bollywood Hungama is to be believed, KJo's bash has apparently become a super-spreader event leaving 50-55 guests infected with Covid-19.

Those in attendance who have tested positive for Covid include Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif, Aditya Roy Kapur and several others. According to reports several others have also felt the symptoms but many are not disclosing the same.

Even actor Kartik Aaryan who was not at Karan Johar’s party tested positive for Covid, he got the virus from one of his heroines who were there at the party and with whom Kartik was promoting his film,” reports said.

Mumbai city has seen a sudden spurt in Covid cases, and people at large have also been seen have thrown caution to the wind and venturing out without the face mask. (UNI)
