Mid-Day

Last time when Vidya Balan fell ill on a film set, she had to be hospitalised. On the sets of Rajkumar Gupta’s next, she was once again taken ill. However, instead of going the hospital way again, Vidya decided to get a doctor on call to make sure precious time was not wasted.

Our source says, “When Vidya got sick while shooting for The Dirty Picture, she was admitted to a Bandra hospital. This time she was shooting in Trombay when she fell sick on the sets. She was suffering from fever and weakness. However, she didn’t want to cancel even a day’s shoot.”

Instead a doctor was summoned on the sets where he stayed for two days in a row. The source says, “The doctor made sure her situation didn’t go out of hand.” The actress is said to have now recuperated from her illness.
