Rakul Preet Singh recently had a severe back injury while working out at the gym. The injury, which was a result of her attempt to perform an 80 kg deadlift without any kind of help, led to back spasms. These spasms were so severe that she had to be bedridden for the last six days, and she anticipates another week or so for full recovery. The actress recently updated her fans on her health and discussed how she has been coping with the injuries on her Instagram account.
Rakul candidly shared her frustration, admitting that she made a ‘stupid’ mistake. She revealed that her determination to push herself led to a severe injury.
She stated, “Well, here’s a little health update. I did something very stupid. I didn’t listen to my body. I had a spasm, kept pushing it, turned into a major injury and I have been in bed for the last six days, and I think it will take another week or so for me to fully recover. I really hope I recover faster than that because it’s not easy for me to give in and rest but it’s a lesson learnt that please listen to your body when it gives you signals. Don’t try to push. I thought that my mind was stronger than my body, and it doesn’t always work like that.”
She concluded, “Thank you so much for all your wishes for people who messaged me and I will bounce back stronger. Lots of love.”
On the work front, Rakul is gearing up for the release of De De Pyaar De 2, where she shares the screen with Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan. She is also set to star in S Shankar’s highly anticipated film Indian 3, alongside Kamal Haasan.
