SINGER and actress Ayda Jebat fell sick while shooting a movie at Lake Rotorua, New Zealand, due to the cold weather, Kosmo! reported.
In a picture posted on her Instagram account on Monday, Ayda – whose real name is Nur Suhada Jebat – was seen resting.
The caption said she was having a fever after she could not take the sudden change in temperature of between 10˚C and 15˚C in New Zealand.
Ayda, 24, said that although she was still weak, she remained in high spirits and would continue working. She urged her fans not to worry too much about her health.
“The production crew of Pinjamkan Hatiku has been taking good care of me and my condition has improved.”
Ayda and the crew departed for New Zealand on July 25, to continue shooting scenes for the film directed by Osman Ali.
The romantic film, which is expected to be screened at year end, also features two other popular actors, Farid Kamil and Shaheizy Sam.
