According to sources, poor raja has been admitted at the Arogyanidhi Hospital in Juhu after being diagnosed having a liver infection and hence failed to turn up for the performance which will be aired next Monday.
A close friend tells that despite his medical problem, Raja was depressed thinking of the possibility of bowing out of Nach Baliye 2.
"He has just come back through the Wild Card round and it is a pity that he had to leave the show now. Shweta, too, is very upset," he adds.
The duo was hoping that he would be well enough to join Shweta for the performance yesterday.
Doctors, however, could not give Raja the permission to leave the hospital for the show, and Shweta went ahead and performed the ‘Dhol Bajne Laga' number on her own, accompanied by her choreographer, Sagar. She left the sets soon after the performance.
When contacted Shweta said, 'The thought of losing the competition is terrible, that too when you had come so close. It's our bad luck that we had to go through all this after coming back.'
