Actor Manav Gohil, best-known for starring in the TV show Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii, recently tested positive for COVID-19 and he documented his journey of "fighting back" the virus in an Instagram video. The 46-year-old actor captioned the video: "The Battle Cry! My might against yours...#fightingback #gettingback." The video begins with a shot of an ambulance and later we hear an emotional voice over by Manav, where he says, "It's a battle cry. It's my might against yours. I know you are cunning, awful and dangerous." The video also had snippets from the hospital, where the actor was admitted. He added, "But what you don't know is this, that my boundary of resilience is fast-traced. And if I fall short of that ability, I'll live my fate to stay undefeated. I have many prayers on my side and be aware my friend, it might shut you blind. So try what you must, but just know that...I'm getting back."
