Down with 'Fever' - Priyanka Chopra
It's bizarre, but all the three lead actors of Tarun Mansukhani's romantic comedy Dostana have fallen ill simultaneously. Abhishek Bachchan has been under the weather for a while now. Says a source from the crew, "He has also been worried about his wife's health but he has been shooting non-stop for Dostana. In fact Abhishek shot Apoorva Lakhia's item song for Mission Istaanbul by night, and Dostana by day. Eighteen hours of shoot at a stretch was bound to take its toll on his health."
John Abraham too fell ill earlier this week, upsetting the tight almost-complete shooting schedule of Dostana. John, who's usually fit as a fiddle, is down too, with viral fever.
Priyanka Chopra has been ill and been shooting for Dostana despite a viral fever. "It's hell," she croaks through a bad throat on the day of her new release, Love Story 2050. "As it is, I'm nervous about the film, not just for Harman's sake but because it is my first release this year. I'm very unwell. Normally I wouldn't even be out of bed under these conditions. But Dostana is on its last leg and we do need to make sure that the indoor portions representing Miami (being shot at Film City) are completed on time. So, all three of us are working through ill health. Such is the nature of our job."
