Aamir Khan fell ill when he returned from his trip to Australia. The actor has been diagnosed with chronic throat infection and his doctor has advised him complete bed rest.

The actor, who also has high fever, has been told to rest his throat and not talk to anybody unless it is absolutely necessary. So Aamir has been forced to cancel his interviews scheduled to promote Peepi [Live] which releases this Friday.

His wife Kiran Rao, who is also the co-producer of the film, has agreed to take on his responsibilities of organising screenings for the industry and all the other nitty gritty details associated with the release.
