On the other hand, Asha Bhosle said that she has to go by the health bulletins that the hospital issues every day. "They aren't allowing anybody. I went once but wasn't allowed inside the compound itself. There are severe restrictions and protocols being followed in view of the ongoing pandemic."

Added Asha Bhosle, "Besides, I too am not very well- a bit of cough and cold. I haven't contracted COVID; just a bit under the weather."

"But Didi is improving; she is better than before," Ashaji asserted.
