Popular Indian actress Raai Laxmi, who predominantly appears in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada movies, is the latest showbiz celebrity to have contracted the Coronavirus.


According to reports, the actress tested positive for the virus early last week and has been in self-isolation during the recovery period. A source in the know informs an Indian publication that she showed very mild symptoms and has been in bed rest for over a week now. She is taking all the precautions and following all Covid-19 protocols. The source goes on to add that the actress is doing well and should recover in a couple of days.

Laxmi rang in 2021 with her close friends in a private celebration. The actress even got a photoshoot done at a beautiful location. She had earlier told the publication, “I had a small get-together with my friends on the New Year’s Eve, with all the norms in place, of course.

Sharing what she wanted from 2021, Raai Laxmi had said, “I want 2021 to be a very big and positive year for all of us. I wish this New Year gives us all a lot of new opportunities. 2020 has not been a great year for the majority of us, but in hindsight, it has taught us a lot. The difficult circumstances gave us a lot of realization. I personally learnt the importance of patience and tolerance. As individuals, and as a society, I believe a certain kind of awakening has happened and we have started putting humanity above us. We should not let go of any of these lessons we learnt, and use it to our advantage to come out of the pandemic state. We should all get back to a nice, happy, stable, and peaceful life.”

On the work front, Raai Laxmi is presently waiting for the release of her next Kannada film Jhansi IPS. She is also filming for Cinderella in Tamil and Anandha Bhairavi in Telugu.

Jeet Adani, the younger son of billionaire industrialist Gautam Adani, married Diva Jaimin Shah, daughter of diamond merchant Jaimin Shah, in an intimate wedding ceremony in Ahmedabad. The event, held at the Adani township, Shantigram, followed traditional Jain and Gujarati customs and was attended by close family members and loved ones. The wedding festivities began at 2 PM, with rituals conducted in a serene and traditional manner.

Despite the family’s prominence, the wedding was intentionally kept low-key, with no political figures or celebrities in attendance. Gautam Adani, who shared glimpses of the ceremony on social media, expressed gratitude and sought blessings for the newlyweds. "It was a small and extremely private function, so we could not invite all well-wishers even if we wanted to. I sincerely seek love and blessings for my daughter Diva and Jeet," he posted.
