Baby down with chicken pox
Baby's got chicken pox…and we aren't talking about a child here, although Benaf Dadachanji's barely out of her teens herself. Benaf, who plays the bubbly polio stricken Baby in Star Plus' Ba,Bahoo aur Baby has been down with chicken pox and is keeping unwell for two weeks now.
The 18 year old says she contracted the virus from her brother and has been bedridden since 23 January and has another week left for recovery, according to her doctors.
"My brother got chicken pox and when he started recovering, I got it. I have stopped shooting as I cannot apply make up. And my face is the worst affected. It was very painful initially, but now the scabs are falling off while the marks are still left. I am dying to wash my hair and have a soap bath as I am only allowed to use neem water. And I am literally sitting on neem leaves throughout the day," giggles the pretty Benaf, who keeps herself busy these days watching loads of movies and English soaps Orange County besides spending time with her friends who come to visit her.
