Days after reports of Shamita Shetty skipping the shoot of stunt-based reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi hit headlines, comes news that the actor had, in fact, been battling dengue. Having taken ill soon after she arrived in Argentina, where the ninth season of the Rohit Shetty-hosted show kicked-off, Shetty was able to finally resume filming from Thursday.

The actor confirmed the news to mid-day, stating, "I'm bummed with what happened, but am slowly regaining my strength. I have started shooting and performing stunts yesterday. I look forward to give my best to the show."
