She has been quarantined in Lucknow.
In her interview with Aaj Tak, Kanika said, "Main thodi pareshan hoon. I do not know what will happen to me in terms of the treatment. I tried asking the doctors here, in return they have threatened me saying that they have been reading about me on the internet. 'You have done something wrong. You have run away from the airport. We are going to file a police case against you', they said. So, actually doctors have not helped but they have sent a threatening call, while I am sitting in this room,"
