Bollywood actor Aamir Khan and his highly accomplished wife Kiran Rao are among the latest victims who have been afflicted by Swine Flu. The duo had to skip the Satyamev Jayate Water Cup event in Pune due to their ill health and took to video conference to speak at the event about the H1N1 virus.

“It is a very happy day for us, but we are upset that after putting in efforts for one year, we could not be there to celebrate the day with you. We have been detected with H1N1 virus. It is known as swine flu commonly. It spread easily and therefore we have to remain in isolation for a week,” said Aamir at the event. Dr. Mini Khetarpal, epidemiology in-charge at the BMC, said Aamir and Kiran are doing the right thing by staying back at home. “Home isolation cuts the chain of transmission of viruses like H1N1. A busy person like him may go out and land up infecting many others.”

We wish Aamir and Kiran a speedy recovery.
