As the pandemic broke out, his wife Saira Banu also shared an audio message on Twitter, saying they were in isolation, and healthy. "I want to thank everyone, who has been calling up and sending WhatsApp message as to our welfare and as to our care-taking. Everything is well, and we have more or less isolated ourselves, just like how it should be. We are sitting isolated from everyone. We are not socialising in any way, and taking lots of care. May god be with us, and may god be with all of you. A sense of togetherness has prevailed in the world and also in our beautiful country. I pray to god that this remains in our happier times as well," she was heard saying.
