EXCLUSIVE: Rakul Preet Singh about her scary fitness accident which made her bedridden: ‘That one mistake caused me…’
Rakul Preet Singh drops massive details about her fitness accident.
Rakul Preet Singh recently appeared on the big screen in Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, alongside Ayushmann Khurrana, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Sara Ali Khan. Now, in an exclusive update, Pinkvilla has learned more about a fitness accident that left the actress bedridden for weeks.
During a recent appearance on a show alongside her husband, Jackky Bhagnani, Rakul opened up about the incident, revealing that she suffered a severe lower back injury after attempting an 80 kg deadlift without wearing a safety belt.
Speaking about the accident on Double Date chat show, Rakul Preet Singh shared how a single mistake during her workout routine resulted in a slipped disc and weeks of physical and emotional hardship. She said, “No matter what your trainer tells you, deadlift is the worst exercise to do. It’s an ego lift.”
Recalling the incident, she revealed that she had always worn a safety belt while deadlifting but chose to skip it that day. “That one mistake caused me a slipped disc and 40 days of bed rest. It was not only a physical injury; it affected me mentally too. It was mentally overwhelming because I was going through physical turmoil. Suddenly, I was unable to do anything, and that really triggers you,” she shared.
Becoming emotional while speaking about the experience, Rakul highlighted how her husband, Jackky Bhagnani, stood by her during that difficult phase. She added, “It’s very important that your partner supports you at that point, and that was Jackky’s biggest contribution when I was injured. He was there for me.”
Reports of Rakul’s injury had surfaced earlier after she reportedly suffered trauma to her lower back while lifting 80 kg without protective support, which allegedly compressed her nerves. Despite being in pain, the actress continued fulfilling her professional commitments with the help of muscle relaxants before eventually being advised to take complete bed rest.
Coming to her recent film appearance, Pati Patni Aur Woh Do is a romantic comedy written and directed by Mudassar Aziz. The film serves as a spiritual sequel to the 2019 Kartik Aaryan starrer Pati Patni Aur Woh. Apart from the lead cast, the movie also features Vijay Raaz, Tigmanshu Dhulia, Vishal Vashishtha, Guneet Singh Sodhi, and several others in key roles.
