Hyderabad: Veteran actor Shabana Azmi has braved the scare of the new strain of COVID-19 and jetted off to London via Dubai for a professional commitment.
According to a leading webloid, Shabana was contemplating to cancel her plans of flying to London for an international project since flight services between India and the UK will resume from January 6, while those from UK to India will recommence from January 8. The services were suspended to stop the spread of a mutant new coronavirus strain which was recently discovered in the UK.

The actor, however, thought of a way out and took a flight to Dubai from Delhi and will be traveling to the UK once her COVID-19 tests in the UAE are satisfactory.

Talking to a leading webloid, Shabana said she was sure that there is no way that she could keep her commitment because the flight services were suspended to stop the spread of the new virus strain. After facing many difficulties, the actor decided to reach London via Dubai where she will have to take an overnight break.

Before she takes flight to the UK, Azmi will have to undergo COVID-19 test and will be allowed to journey further only if her tests come out normal.
Shabana, who was last seen in Kaali Khuhi, will soon be seen in LGBTQ+ drama Sheer Qorma.
