It could be from new people, who tend to come from another set. Besides, we don’t wear a mask while shooting. I just want to say that wearing masks on the set is something that one should not forget at any cost except for the time when they are shooting," said the actor.

Currently, Tannaz is part of the Zee TV show Apna Time Bhi Aayega. She is also working on a special ZEE5 project with Bhakhtyar.
