Dutt revealed that Deepika was at the hospital for a "regular check-up" after recovering from COVID-19 a few weeks back.
"Earlier she was down with Covid-19, but after recovering she left for Europe. And straightaway from Europe, she landed on our film sets. After mild fluctuations in her BP, she visited the hospital for an hour for a routine check-up just to make sure that everything was normal."
Describing Deepika as a 'true professional', the producer mentioned how she resumed shooting immediately.
