Idols in chicken pox grip!

Chicken pox has marked its second victim amongst the Indian Idol contestants!

First, it was Neha Kakkar, and now it's Kolkatta's Jolly Das, who is down with the disease.

"We saw marks on her face as soon as she landed in Dumdum airport. We immediately took her to the doctor and he confirmed our worst fears," says Jolly's worried dad.

Reportedly, Jolly had fainted during the recently held Mumbai Marathon and this was perhaps a pointer towards things to come. The disease has spread to Jolly's stomach, back and mouth, and when contacted the girl was in no position to even talk.

The Indian Idol contestants are currently in Assam for shows for the 26 January episode and Jolly is very sad about missing the shoot, says her father. Mr Das also pointed out that Jolly was very friendly with Neha and the disease must have spread because of that.

"We have taken precautions. Anti-vaccines have been given to all, but I think if things are destined to happen, they will," says Sony vice-president, marketing and communication, Nina Jaipuria.

With Jolly unwell, the show seems to be a little on the backfoot. The good news is that Neha is back! "Yes, Jolly is definitely out of the next episode. The channel is yet to take a call on her, but we had waited for Aditi in the last season, and we will wait for Jolly as well! She will only be fit in about two weeks and this is the final round, let's see what happens," says Nina, who is keeping her fingers crossed!

Well, whatever might be the case, we commoners can take heart from the fact that even idols get chicken pox!
