/> Even superstars need a break to recover from ill health. It's impossible to imagine Salman Khan taking time off for health reasons. And that too at a time when he has a big release around the corner.

But that's the way the cookie of life crumbles. A nerve disorder has thrown the elaborate promotional plans for Bodyguard off course.

Says a source, "Salman and the makers of Bodyguard had planned many major promotional activities for the whole week until the film's release on Eid day including a number of Eid-related appearances for Salman in several cities. But he needs to take it easy. "

Efforts are now on to cut down Salman's promotional activities as much as possible.

Says the source, "It's not easy wriggle out of commitments since Salman is the face of Bodyguard. And Bhai doesn't want to disappoint his fans specially when it's an Eid release. "

Apparently Salman insists on going through all the activities planned for the next one week. But the family is not willing to give in.

Says the Bodyguard producer, Salman's brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri, "Health is wealth. Bhai's contribution to Bodyguard has been a 110 percent. He has done a lot of stuff in the past week. Even on Wednesday he was visited Kanpur, Lucknow and Indore. "

But now it's time for recuperative rest. Salman's fans would agree he has earned it.
