Vidya Balan and her producer-husband Siddharth Roy Kapur have had to cancel plans to celebrate New Year overseas coinciding with the actress' birthday after the actress was admitted to a city hospital for suspected kidney stone.
A source said, "The couple boarded a connecting flight from Abu Dhabi to their (undisclosed) holiday destination and while the aircraft was preparing to take off, she experienced a sharp pain in her back. The pain was so severe that paramedics had to be called on board and later, they were deplaned. She was taken to a clinic at the airport for further tests. Her temperature had also shot up."
After taking some medicines, the couple took a flight back to Mumbai and Vidya was immediately rushed to a suburban hospital. "A few tests later, doctors suspected kidney stone. She is now being treated and will be discharged soon,`" added the source.
Confirming the news, Vidya's spokesperson said, "She is currently in expert hands at the hospital and is well on her way to recovery."
