New Delhi:

South star Nayanthara and her boyfriend, director Vignesh Shivan, in a recent Instagram post, shared an update about their health and stated that they are “happy and healthy,” contrary to several media reports that claimed that the duo have tested COVID – 19 positive. Vignesh Shivan, on Sunday, shared a video of himself and Nayanthara dancing to kids’ song Baby Shark using a FaceApp filter on Instagram to put an end to rumours that they have been diagnosed with coronavirus and that they are living in quarantine in Chennai’s Egmore. He wrote: “And… that’s how we see the news about us, the corona and the imaginations of all the press and social media sweethearts. Anyways! To our well-wishers, we are happy, healthy.” Taking a jibe at some media publications for circulating false reports, Vignesh added: “God has blessed us with enough strength and happiness to see all you jokers and your jokes!”
