Kanika has been embroiled in a controversy ever since she tested positive for the disease earlier in March. She was criticized for attending parties and allegedly spreading the virus though none of those who came into contact with her have tested positive. Lucknow police also booked her on charges of negligence for attending various social events in the city despite being infected with coronavirus and having been instructed by the authorities to isolate herself at her home. Many political leaders who met Kanika in Uttar Pradesh also went in for self-isolation post her diagnosis.

While Kanika was overwhelmingly criticised and trolled, actor Sonam Kapoor came out in the singer’s defence. “Hey guys @TheKanikakapoor came back on the 9th. India was not self isolating but playing Holi,” wrote Sonam
