  • After Prince Charles, Queen Elizabeth tests positive for Covid-19

    The United Kingdom’s (UK) Queen Elizabeth II tested positive for Covid-19 on Sunday, said the Buckingham Palace.

    According to the Palace, the 95-year-old monarch is experiencing “mild cold-like symptoms”.

    It was confirmed she had been in direct contact with her eldest son and heir, the Prince of Wales, who himself tested positive for the virus last week.

    Previously, it was confirmed that the Queen is fully vaccinated against Covid-19.

    The news came forward only a few weeks after the Queen reached her platinum jubilee of 70 years on the throne on February 6.

    Following the announcement, well wishes from the public and politicians started coming in.

    British Prime Minister (PM) Boris Johnson said, “I’m sure I speak for everyone in wishing Her Majesty The Queen a swift recovery from Covid and a rapid return to vibrant good health.”

    Labour Party’s London Mayor Sadiq Khan tweeted, “The commitment Her Majesty the Queen has shown to our country continues to be unwavering. Wishing her a swift and safe recovery from Covid-19.”

    Throwback video: Kangana says ‘Chullu Bhar Paani Mein Doob marna chahiye’ after Deepika’s dedication

    A 2014 story about a verbal battle between Kangana Ranaut and Deepika Padukone is doing the rounds again. In an old video, Kangana is seen talking about Deepika and saying that how unjust it was that an award was given to an undeserving person.

    Their rivalry dates back to an award show in 2014 when Deepika Padukone won the Best Actress award for Happy New Year. In her acceptance speech, the actress dedicated her award to Kangana Ranaut for her performance in Queen. Kangana, however, didn’t win any award.

    According to Hindustan Times it didn’t go well with Kangana who took a dig at her in an interview said, “Usko Happy New Year ke liye award mila, usko chullu bhar paani main doob marna chahiye Happy New Year ke liye aap award le kaise sakte hain?”

    Kangana Ranaut continued and said, “Aap socho, thoda toh common sense hona chahiye. Ek bande ki Queen film ayi hai aur Deepika ko Happy New Year ke liye award mil raha hai.”

    In 2014, Deepika Padukone dedicated her award for ‘Happy New Year’ to Kangana Ranaut for her performance in Queen at the stage and said, “Thank you for this award, but I believe that this year belonged to Kangana. So, Kangana, this one’s for you.”
