A typhoid-affected Sonam Kapoor will be bedridden for 20 days

Sonam Kapoor has been hit by typhoid. She will be out of action for around three weeks.

A source close to Sonam says, "After she came back from her US holiday and her Thank You shoot, Sonam became extremely unwell. She was diagnosed as having typhoid and was advised complete bed rest for 20 days by her doctor."

Apparently, Sonam was asked to walk the ramp for Manish Malhotra (she had acted in his nephew's directorial debut I Hate Luv Storys) during the Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) but had to cancel because of her illness.

The source retorts, "Sonam was not to walk the ramp but simply attend LFW. In fact, she had to cancel a few work commitments including an endorsement event because of her ailment. She couldn't go to Delhi or shoot for Thank You. She's resting at home and can't attend anything."

Sonam says, "I was never going to walk the ramp for Manish. I was down with typhoid but am better now."
