Indian actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and her daughter have been hospitalised for Covid-19 treatment, the Times of India reported, days after her husband and father-in-law were admitted.

Rai’s father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan and son Abhishek Bachchan were admitted to Mumbai’s Nanavati Hospital early this week, becoming the highest-profile patients of the pandemic sweeping India.

At the same time, Aishwarya Rai, a former Miss World who regularly appears on “most beautiful” lists, and her eight-year-old daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, tested positive for the coronavirus but they had since been in home quarantine.
