Malhotra's Naagin 5 co-star Mohit Sehgal congratulated him and asked him to resume work soon. Earlier, Sehgal, along with the rest of the cast and crew, had also tested negative and hence the team could carry on with the shooting, reported Mumbai Mirror.

Although many television actors have contracted the virus in recent days, most of them have been able to defeat COVID-19. This list includes Parth Samthaan, Debina Bonnerjee, and Gurmeet Choudhary.
