/> A chartered flight carrying Salman Khan's friends and family including Arbaaz, Sohail, David Dhawan to Dubai on Thursday for his 'Being Human' concert had to be delayed by almost an hour when Sajid Nadiadwala suddenly took ill.

Apparently there was alarm and panic on-board. A doctor had to be rushed to the flight On examining him the doctor announced that Sajid was not fit to travel and was advised to de-board.

Salman's flight had to leave without Sajid.

News of the Housefull producer's sudden illness spread like wildfire in the industry. After repeated attempts to contact him Sajid finally answered the phone on Friday afternoon.

Sounding pale and weak the producer said, "It was a condition I had been trying to suppress for some time now with antibiotics. Apparently the antibiotics turned hostile on me, and I didn't even know it. On Thursday when I was ready to take off for Dubai with Salman I suddenly had an acute pain in my stomach. I just couldn't bear it."

The doctor got him off the flight and suggested a series of complicated tests.

Says Sahid, "Apparently my white blood-cell count has shot up at an alarming rate. That needs to be checked immediately. Now I'm completely house-bound and bed-ridden for some time."

Has this suddenly withdrawal from Salman's entourage miffed the star?



"Not at all!" protest Sajid. "In fact he was the most concerned and persuaded me to stay back."
