Actor and Producer Suriya Sivakumar has tested positive for Covid-19. "I am suffering from 'coronavirus' infection and I am receiving treatment," the Tamil star tweeted late night on February 7.
He wrote that although life hasn't returned back to normal, "we can't be paralysed with fear" and extended his gratitude to physicians.
Filmmaker Rajsekar Pandian, a close associate of the actor, gave a heath update to the star's fans in a Twitter post.
"Dear brothers and sisters Anna’s fine and nothing to worry," he wrote.
The actor was recently seen in Soorarai Pottru, which released on Amazon Prime Video.
Directed by Sudha Kongara and backed by Suriya, the film was a biographical drama on the life of Captain GR Gopinath, a retired Army officer, who founded the low-cost airline Air Deccan.
