Bollywood actor-politician Urmila Matondkar on Sunday said she has tested negative for COVID-19, almost 14 days after she had contracted the virus, PTI reported.

The 47-year-old actor took to Twitter and posted a video thanking her well wishers for their prayers.

Matondkar, who had opened up about her Covid diagnosis on October 31 and was under home quarantine, asked people to get vaccinated to fight the virus.

” If you have taken only the first dose, then please take the second one too… This is the only solution to fight COVID, it gives all the required strength.”

Matondkar, who unsuccessfully contested the 2019 Lok Sabha elections on a Congress ticket, joined the ruling Shiv Sena last year.

On Saturday, Maharashtra reported 999 new coronavirus cases and 49 fatalities, taking the tally of infections to 66,23,344 and death toll to 1,40,565.
