Lara Dutta has shared a nostalgic story about her time on the set of Housefull, where co-star Deepika Padukone fell ill with malaria during filming.
In an interview with NDTV, Lara revealed that Deepika was 'totally drained and wiped out' due to her illness, but still managed to deliver a professional performance.
Deepika had contracted malaria and was running a high fever, but she continued to work on the film, which was released in 2010 and became a massive success.
Lara praised Deepika's dedication and professionalism, saying that she was an 'absolute professional' who 'got her work done' despite her illness.
Housefull, which starred Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, and Lara Dutta, marked the beginning of the popular Bollywood comedy film series.
