Rakul Preet Singh’s dedication to her work recently led to a severe health scare after a gym injury became critical.
Despite suffering a serious back injury, she continued her work commitments, which worsened her condition and left her bedridden for several days.
According to a source, Rakul’s condition took a turn after she sustained an injury on October 5th during a workout session. She was performing an 80 kg deadlift without wearing a belt, which resulted in a severe back spasm.
Despite the injury, she pushed through and continued shooting for De De Pyaar De 2, relying on muscle relaxants to manage the pain for two consecutive days.
Unfortunately, the pain persisted, and after three days, she sought help from physiotherapists. However, the relief only lasted a few hours after each session.
The situation escalated on October 10th, just an hour before her birthday celebration. The injury caused trauma to her body, specifically affecting her L4, L5, and S1 nerves, which left them severely jammed.
Her blood pressure dropped, and she broke into a cold sweat, forcing her to lie down immediately. Instead of a festive birthday, Rakul had to endure injections and muscle relaxants to alleviate the intense pain.

The source added that Rakul’s tendency to push her physical limits worsened the injury, as she continued working instead of taking the necessary rest. It’s been five days since the incident, and while she is in recovery, the process is slow and steady.
This injury has been a hard lesson for the actress, who is known for her commitment and determination. Her fans and colleagues hope she will make a full recovery soon, having learned the importance of balancing physical health with professional responsibilities.
