Kanika Kapoor’s family decided to give a detailed explanation of all the claims made and gave an interview to a news portal. Her family revealed to the media portal that Kanika got her tests done when she flew back and started feeling unwell. Her family refused all the claims of the singer throwing tantrums at the hospital and said that she had only complained about not receiving the most basic things.
Her family revealed to the media portal that Kanika Kapoor was asked to change her clothes and wear a medical gown provided to her behind a curtain in the hospital room. They further revealed that she complained because she did not feel comfortable. Moreover, she saw dirt in the quarantine ward and therefore asked the hospital staff to clean it.
Kanika Kapoor had earlier told a media portal that she was not given any food or any medicine at the hospital. She had added further that she was not being attended to by the medical staff despite her informing them that she has a fever. The singer also told the media portal that when she had asked the doctors to get the room cleaned, they told her that she was not living in a five-star hotel and should not be expecting that kind of treatment. Kanika Kapoor had further revealed that she was being given threats by the doctor that the authorities were going to file an FIR against her for withholding information and not disclosing her illness.
Later, Dr RK Dhiman, the director of the hospital had clarified to a leading media portal that Kanika Kapoor was being given the best facilities at their hospital and the room is cleaned every four hours. He called Kanika’s claims ‘baseless’ and said that she must co-operate like a patient and not throw tantrums of a star in Lucknow. It was further reported by the hospital authorities to a media portal that Kanika Kapoor is now asymptomatic of the disease.
