Ali Zafar and co-actor Yaami Gautam have been on a promotional spree for their upcoming film, Total Siyapaa. But the hectic schedule apparently took a toll on Ali’s health during this trip to Delhi.

A source said, “Ali happened to eat something wrong after which he started feeling feverish and vomited around midnight. He was then rushed to hospital in the wee hours of Monday. The doctor treating Ali said it is a case of food poisoning.” The spokesperson of the film confirmed the news.

The Total Siyappa team has already covered various cities for promotions and were scheduled to travel to Chandigarh on Tuesday, but these plans have been put on hold due to Ali's ill-health.

Before Delhi, the actors were in Jaipur for the film’s promotion. “Ali had been feeling unwell since Sunday evening but he did not want to disrupt the schedule. With the film slated to release this Friday, Ali wanted to go all out to promote the film,” said a source close to the actor.
