New Delhi: After singer Kanika Kapoor on Friday revealed that she was tested positive for coronavirus, writer Kanika Dhillon’s Twitter feed was suddenly filled with hate messages from netizens as users mistook her for Kanika Kapoor and said she “should be jailed”. However, the writer appeared in no mood to let it go lightly and hit back with a sharp reply after which, the Twitter user deleted his post.

“Sir, virus apke dimaag mein chala gaya hai.. har Kanika ko utha ke jail mein daaloge? Naam suraj hai- dimaag andhkaar mein! Dimaag ki batti chalao! Pyaar phailao- ghar pe raho... haath-sabun se dho!! Namaste! (Sir, the virus has hit your brains... will you send every Kanika to jail? Your name is Sooraj, but brain is dark. Light up your mind... spread love - sit at home... wash your hands with soap)," she wrote.
