Jacqueline Fernandes fainted while promoting the upcoming release of her latest film.
The actress was endorsing Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai in Kanpur with director Milap Zhaveri and co-star Riteish Deshmukh when she passed out because of the heat, exhaustion and lack of fluids.
"It was a very hectic trip. We went straight from Lucknow airport by car to Kanpur. There were so many people to meet and greet Jackie and Ritiesh that they did not have any time to eat or drink anything," Zhaveri told Mid Day.
"Then, when she went to the restroom, the crowds got to know that she was inside and mobbed the entrance. She was locked inside and could not get out for a long time. Finally, we finished the press conference and when she sat in the car, the hectic schedule along with the extreme heat got to her and she fainted. Luckily, I was there to give her water and revive her."
