Hyderabad: Actor Kangana Ranaut on Tuesday said she has tested negative for COVID-19, more than 10 days after contracting the virus. The 34-year-old actor had tested positive for the novel coronavirus on May 8 and was under home quarantine.

On her Instagram stories, Kangana wrote, "Hello everyone today I tested negative for covid, I want to say a lot about how I beat the virus but I am told not to offend covid fan clubs.... Yes there are actually people out there who get offended if you show disrespect towards the virus.... Anyway thanks for your wishes and love."

Kangana had tested positive for COVID-19 on May 8. Upon being diagnosed with the disease, the actor had shared that she has quarantined herself and is sure she will 'demolish' the novel coronavirus which, for her, is "nothing but a small time flu. However, her post was reportedly deleted by Instagram because she called the virus "a small time flu."
