Bangalore girl, Nani’s ‘Jersey’ heroine Shraddha Srinath has self distanced herself and was in 14 days self-isolation as she travelled to Hyderabad and Chennai between 12th March and 15th March for the sake of her professional commitments.
Rumours started making rounds that there was a corona positive patient on her flight and that’s why Karnataka health officials visited her house and issued a notice to her to self-isolate.
Stating these rumours as false, Shraddha Srinath tweeted that she has self-isolated herself. Now that the 14-day period is over, she is now busy helping her mother in the kitchen. How nice!
She also advised the readers to look up for authentic information as there is not much happening in the film industry and therefore, rumours like these keep surfacing.
Factual check is essential for reporting a piece of news and that’s absolutely essential during these panic times.
To whomsoever it may concern,
I understand that there is not much happening in the cinema industry to report about, but please do not write factually incorrect articles.
The readers look up to you as a source of reliable and true information. https://t.co/hFhKMBmIO1

I CHOSE to self isolate for 14 days upon the advice of my cousin doctor who told me to do it as a precautionary measure – as every responsible and aware citizen has been and should be doing after international/domestic travels.

I travelled to Hyderabad and Chennai between 12th to 15th March but,
1. NO, there was no infected person on the flight
2. Thereby no Karnataka medical officials came to my house and told me to self isolate
3. I surely did not talk about this on my social media https://t.co/hFhKMBmIO1— Shraddha Srinath (@ShraddhaSrinath) April 2, 2020
