Mumbai: It's putting a lot of people out of work these days, stars notwithstanding. No, we're not talking about the recession. After Hrs has found that currently a whole lot of actors are down and out due to the weather.
In Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's case, it seems she put her health at risk while shooting for Mani Ratnam's Raavan in Cochin, where it's been pouring heavily. Although Ash was down with high fever and was prescribed doses of multi-vitamins and paracetamol, she insisted on carrying on shooting despite the director asking her to take rest.
A source close to the development says, "Ash was running very high temperature on the sets. The Cochin schedule has been a gruelling one for her as all the scenes require her to be drenched. She was also shooting simultaneously for the Tamil and Hindi version.
Thus, the time of staying wet for her role was incredibly long -- she had to sometimes wear the wet outfits for over 10 hours. The last few days have been incredibly bad for her health and she's now on medication."
The insider adds, "Mani (Ratnam) really wanted her to take rest but Ash insisted that she would like to continue shooting. The reason being she wants to quickly finish her work and dash back for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Guzaarish that also has Hrithik Roshan in it. She also doesn't want Mani to undergo any losses."
Shahid Kapoor, on the other hand, has missed his shoot since last Tuesday because of high fever. "His eyes are red and the doctor has told him that he has also got an infection in the stomach. He has been put on antibiotics and the doctor has advised him bedrest," says a close friend.
What's interesting to note is that around the same time, Priyanka Chopra also fell ill with viral flu. Now, could this be a case of getting too close for comfort? "She tweeted that she was feeling unwell," says a source. "But it was amazing that she didn't request her director to let her off early even when she was not feeling up to it." Though she is feeling better today, sources say that Priyanka is still feeling weak post the flu.
Deepika Padukone who was shooting for Housefull has been diagnosed with malaria. While it was earlier assumed that it was viral fever, now reports have confirmed that it is indeed malaria. She went to London for one day to shoot for the film but had to return to Mumbai immediately because of her critical condition. The shooting has been suspended till she recovers.
