Bollywood is on high alert! One of its biggest stars, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has fallen ill while shooting her latest movie “Action Replay.”
The model and actress has spent the last week on Manori Island working with Vipul Shah on the movie that tells the story of a time-traveling man, played by Akshay Kumar.
But all of a sudden, while shooting a scene, Ash got sick and had to take antibiotics. But it seems like Mrs Bachchan ate the medicine like candy and soon had a bad reaction. Her lips got swollen and her fever worsened.
But what to do when you have to finish a movie? Well, Ash is a true professional and decided to simply cover her face with a veil and continue shooting! Interesting! No rest for this L’Oreal girl!
“The reaction could’ve either been because of the antibiotics, which she took in excess as she had to finish the shooting yesterday as well as fulfill the next important commitment of being the keynote speaker at a women’s summit today or it could also be an insect sting,” Aishwarya’s spokesperson said.
But unfortunately the star didn’t get any better despite all the antibiotics and today her husband, Abhishek Bachchan, had to accept an award for her at the summit.
Poor Ash! We hope she gets better soon!

Abhishek Bachchan has repeatedly been referred to, by well wishers, as the “dark horse” of Bollywood. Gossip hawks love spinning endlessly speculative yarns on him. He is the punching bag of Doubting Thomases: How is he ever going to live up to his parents’ fame? Will he ever be able to hog the limelight from his internationally famous wife? Has he? Hasn’t he? Will he? Won’t he?

Questions, assumptions and speculations apart, Small B is as enigmatic as his Big Dad. And, as is the norm with the Lions and the Bachchans, Abhi always moves in groups — preferably with those of the same surname. He is spotted at functions towering over his petite mother, Jaya Bachchan; he has almost always been seen hand-in-hand with his Beauty Queen wife, Aishwarya Rai; he is also seen walking shoulder-to-shoulder with his larger-than-life father, Amitabh Bachchan. Whatever/wherever he is, Abhishek has always been the object of focus of every snap-happy scribe.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan seems to have turned workaholic. She has been shooting for Vipul Shah’s forthcoming flick ‘Action Replay’ at Manori Island for the last few days. Besides, she also has to finish some important sequences. However, she suddenly suffered high fever and a severe throat infection just before reaching the set. In spite of all this, she was not willing to cancel the day’s shoot. In fact, she did go to the set in a ferry from Versova to Manori Island after taking antibiotics. And, the actress got busy shooting for her part.

Everything was fine until lunchtime when suddenly she felt her lips starting to puff up and getting swelled. This may be due to the reaction of antibiotics, which she took in excess. After all, she had to finish the shooting as well as to fulfill the next important commitment of being the keynote speaker at a women’s summit, it is learnt. Anyway, this isn’t fair for the Bachchan bahu , who is the vital link of the entire family these days. Her illness causes a great concern among Bachchans, we are told.

Rest assured that Aishwarya Rai isn’t going bald. It’s just that she would be seen donning a special wig designed by Hollywood make-up artist Paul Pattison for some portions of Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s film Action Replayy.

Reason? Since the movie’s story progresses backwards in time, Shah wanted a unique look for the leading stars Aishwarya and Akshay Kumar for the sequences that are set in the 1970s.

After much discussion with the creative team and the leading pair, Shah roped in Paul Pattison since he didn’t want Ash and Akki to wear tacky wigs. Pattison has considerable experience working in a number of Hollywood films, including ‘Mission Impossible II’ and ‘Braveheart’.

In fact, we hear that Pattison is paying meticulous attention to the looks and hairdos of the extras and junior artists, too, on the sets at Nitin Desai studios in Karjat.
