Mumbai, October 22

Actor Hrithik Roshan’s mother, Pinkie Roshan, has tested positive for COVID-19, filmmaker-husband Rakesh Roshan said.

There were reports that Pinkie Roshan, who turned 67 on Thursday, tested positive for the virus a week ago.

When contacted, Rakesh Roshan told PTI that she is currently asymptomatic.

“Yes it’s true. There are no symptoms, and she is doing home quarantine,” he said.

Pinkie Roshan took to Instagram and shared an image of balloons and flowers, a surprise gift to her from the family.

“My family brings in my birthday with this surprise at my door,” she captioned the picture.

On Wednesday, Mumbai’s COVID-19 tally rose to 2,45,871 and death toll reached 9,869. PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
