All You Need To Know About Kanika Kapoor, Bollywood Singer Who Tested Positive For Coronavirus

Singer Kanika Kapoor, who tested positive for the novel coronavirus a few days ago, has been criticised a lot by netizens for her irresponsible behaviour for not self-quarantining herself upon her return from London and then attending several parties in Lucknow. But there’s a section of social media who have come in her support. Some of her friends like Indeep Bakshi, Sonam Kapoor have urged the trollers to show her empathy rather than slamming her.

For the uninitiated, Kanika Kapoor, who is trained in Indian classical vocal music, is a popular Bollywood singer. She was born and brought up in Lucknow. At a young age of 18, she got married and shifted her base to London with her husband, Raj Chandok in 1997. The two met at Kanika’s cousin’s wedding.

After spending substantial time and giving birth to three children (two daughters, Aayana and Samara, and a son, Yuvraaj) , Kanika separated from her husband and returned to India.

She made her singing debut in 2012 with the song “Jugni Ji”, which was the remixed version of Pakistani Sufi song “Alif Allah”. And then in 2014, she actually shot to fame with the song “Baby Doll” from the Sunny Leone-starrer “Ragini MMS 2”. Later she went on to sing chartbuster songs like “Chittiyan Kalaiyan” and “Lovely”.
