Kanika Kapoor currently at her Lucknow house, releases statement clarifying allegations

Coronavirus survivor and singer Kanika Kapoor on Sunday took to her Instagram handle to release a statement clarifying allegations against her of being 'missing' from her Lucknow house. The singer tested positive on March 20, about 10 days after returning from a trip to London. The singer was later booked by the UP Police for negligence and that brought her under the spotlight.

Kanika who became the most searched celebrity on Yahoo News released a new statement responding to the allegations. "I stayed quiet not because I am wrong but in fact being fully aware that there have been misunderstandings and wrong exchange of information. I was giving time for the truth to prevail and for people to reach their own realisation," wrote Kapoor on her Instagram post.
