Mumbai/IBNS: Three members of Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone's family have tested positive for Covid-19, media reports said.

Deepika's father Prakash Padukone, who also happens to be a former Indian badminton player, mother Ujjala and sister Anisha have tested positive for Novel Coronavirus.

While Ujjala and Anisha are isolated at home, Prakash Padukone, whose fever was not coming down, was admitted to a hospital last Saturday in Bengaluru.

As all health parameters are doing fine, Deepika's father is expected to be released within a few days.

Already several Bollywood personalities were affected by the virus as the second wave of Covid-19 has hit India badly.
