Veteran Punjabi film actor Nirmal Rishi receives Padma Shri
Mumbai: Actress Vidya Balan, who was suffering from Dengue took to Twitter to thank her fans for the prayers and love they sent her. Vidya, who recently returned from a film shoot in the United States, was advised complete bed rest by her doctors.
Officials from the Brihan Mumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) conducted a thorough inspection of Balan’s sea-facing residence, Praneta Apartments at Juhu, to find potential mosquito-breeding spots.
Two spots were found on an upper floor and one on the ground floor, in a flat that belongs to Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor, who recently moved in there.
BMC insecticide officer Rajan Naringrekar said, “On the upper floor, one breeding ground was found in a plastic flowerpot and another under a tarpaulin cover, put up for the monsoon, on an attached terrace.
The ground-floor breeding spot was inside a defunct swimming pool in which rainwater had accumulated, creating favourable conditions for mosquitoes to breed.” Naringrekar added that both offenders will soon receive notices for failing to keep tabs on the breeding grounds.
