Curling leaves can be a sign of underwatering. The leaves curl to conserve moisture. It can also be a sign of overwatering. If you have over watered and The Roots have rotted, they are not absorbing water, therefore the leaves curl to conserve water.

Tip it out of the pot and check the condition of the roots. If it's been really dry give it a good soak.

Sensitive to draft maybe?
