Yami Gautam too had a tough time, health-wise, before she began to shoot her new film Ginny Weds Sunny co-starring Vikrant Massey. During her latest interview with Mid-day, Yami revealed that before kick-starting the shoot of her film she was diagnosed with dengue and she has hardly got any time to recover.

Speaking to Mid-day, Yami revealed that she once fainted after 5-6 times during a song shoot which was being shot in extreme heat. Yami said, “There's a song and while filing that I fainted after five or six takes as we were shooting in extreme heat. In Dengue, what happens is that your skin gets peeled off completely. My skin was completely worn out and I had no idea what to do. And I also used to feel bad since the team and their hard work is involved. But everyone was so nice and supportive. Even the LOL song, we shot that in one day."

Yami further revealed how supporting her team had been during her road to recovery. , "There's no medicine for Dengue. And post the film, I barely got any time to recover. But I just got up as I knew people were waiting, there were dates involved. For food I remember I used to eat just Khichdi. Both my meals used to be just Khichdi.”

“I realised I need some heavy carbs as I won't be able to survive and sustain night shoots. So my team said, 'You know, forget it. Your strength is more important so it's fine if your weight goes here and there. Please eat, please eat properly. We'll feed you anything that it takes to make you happy and energetic," she concluded. (ALSO READ: Ginny Weds Sunny Movie Review: Vikrant Massey-Yami Gautam's Sincere Efforts Wasted; Bless The Viewers Not The Couple!)
