Actress Rakul Preet Singh, who was gearing up for ‘
De De Pyaar De 2
‘, recently sustained a serious injury to her back.
According to IANS, the actress has been on bed-rest for the past few days following a rather frightening incident at the gym. Reports indicate that she performed an 80kg deadlift without using a belt, which led to a back spasm. The incident took place on October 5th, after which, the actress was advised to stay in bed to properly heal from the injury.
Now, the ‘Dhruva’ actress took to her
Instagram Stories
, Rakul shared a video to update her followers on her health condition.
In the video, Rakul can be heard saying, “Hi my lovely people, 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. 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 Preet Singh will be next seen in ‘De De Pyaar De 2’, where she will once again star opposite Ajay Devgn. The comedy directed by Anshul Sharma also stars R Madhavan in the lead. The film is scheduled to release on 1 May 2025.
