Sanjay Phunde, who advised Rekha to undergo a Coronavirus test, told ABP News, “BMC team went to her bugalow for sanitization. As a medical officer, I suggested Rekha to get a COVID-19 test. The actress didn’t allow me to enter her house and her manager Fazana spoke to us from behind the door.”

He further said, “Farzana gave her number from behind the door and asked me to call her on phone. I spoke to her later on the phone.”

“Farzana said that Rekha didn’t come in contact with the security guard, who tested positive for COVID-19. The security guard used to have food outside and was not allowed to enter the bungalow. Rekha said that she has no symptoms of the novel Coronavirus and is doing fine,” Sanjay Phunde said.
