We had earlier reported that veteran actor-filmmaker Satish Kaushik tested positive for COVID-19. While he was under home quarantine since then, Satish has now been admitted to a private hospital for better medical care. 

According to a statement released by Kaushik's spokesperson today, the actor is currently "recovering well." 

The statement read, "He was planning to get vaccinated for COVID-19. However, when he got tested after experiencing some weakness, he tested positive. Satish ji quarantined at home for two days, but he decided to get admitted at the hospital for proper medical care."

The spokesperson added, "He is grateful to his family, friends and well-wishers who are praying for his speedy recovery."

The filmmaker, who recently directed the Pankaj Tripathi-starrer Kaagaz, is also part of Vivek Agnihotri's upcoming film, The Last Show.
