Mumbai: 18 crew members on Dance Deewane have tested positive for Covid-19. And the Bollywood actress, Madhuri Dixit is one of the judges on the show. In recent weeks, there has been a spike in the Covid-19 cases in India, particularly in Maharashtra.

A major report stated that due to the outbreak, there was ‘chaos’ at the set of the reality show over the weekend. Madhuri Dixit, Tushar Kalia, and Dharmesh Yelande are the judges of the show and Raghav Juyal is the host.

Ashok Dubey, General Secretary of FWICE(Federation of Western India Cine Employees) said, “Whatever has happened is very unfortunate. We pray that each person who has been infected gets fine. This show always does a pre-test with the cast and crew and hence they had some time to rush in a new crew. Their next shoot is on April 5 and a pre-test will again be done. Only those who are Covid negative are allowed and hereafter too the same procedure will be adopted”.

The State’s health department said in a bulletin that Maharashtra witnessed a marginal dip in its daily cases of Covid-19 as well as in deaths too. 31,643 new Covid cases and 102 related deaths are reported by the health department.
