Aditya Narayan revealed that the team of Indian Idol 12 is shooting in Daman as Maharashtra has halted shooting completely, due to the rising COVID-19 cases in the city. He said that shooting in Daman was the need of the hour. Aditya Narayan shared that he feels great to be back on the show. He added that he has never been absent from a show for so long, and he’s happy to be back with the team. He assured that they are shooting in a bio-bubble in Daman and all the safety measures are being taken care of, by the channel.

While speaking about his return to the show, he said that it feels strange to be back on the show since everything is cosy and intimate since they do not have resources or time to put up a set that is as grand as the one in Film City. He added that since everyone is at home, he feels like it’s a responsibility to entertain the audience and help them forget their problems for 90 minutes. Aditya Narayan also said that the current season has received a lot of love from the audience and thus the show must go on!

Aditya Narayan's health as well as his wife’s health had taken a toll on them. Speaking about her, he said that she has recovered from the virus too.
