Aww, poor guy! But love his positive attitude even in a tough situation. That "fit check" video is so him. Wishing Jaan a speedy recovery. Kumar Sanu ji must be worried sick - hope he stays negative and safe too.

Sending best wishes from Canada! 🇨🇦 It's interesting how even celebrities are getting hit. Hope he recovers well. The Wuhan joke might be a bit much though - people lost loved ones to this. Just my two cents. Get better soon!

Lagta hai Bigg Boss ke baad bhi Jaan ka luck thoda off hai yaar. But his sense of humor is spot on - "my favourite designer: Kokilaben" 🤣 That's some serious Bollywood level wit! Get well soon, bro. One tip: avoid the Wuhan jokes though, it's a bit insensitive.

Jaan bhai! Get well soon! 🎵 Your music is needed in this dull time. But please be careful with the Chinese references - we all know where it started but we don't need to blame anyone. Focus on recovery and come back with a hit song for us!

Hope he recovers quickly! It's good to see some positivity and humor during illness. But I agree with others - the "China came" joke is a bit distasteful. This pandemic has affected everyone globally. Let's be mindful. Wishing him all the best!
