“I have to be ok letting go of certain things”: Rakul Preet Singh on her lifestyle changes post injury

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 29 (ANI): Bollywood actress Rakul Preet Singh opened up about the changes she made in her life after suffering a back spasm during an 80 kg deadlift. She said that her journey through recovery taught her the importance of relaxation and letting go of things that are beyond a person’s control.

The ‘De De Pyaar De’ actress made an appearance at the Magnum Lounge during the ongoing Lakme Fashion Week in partnership with FDCI on Saturday.

Speaking with ANI, Rakul Preet opened up about her health after the injury. The actress admitted that she is not in her optimum condition yet but acknowledges improvement in her health every day.

“The injury really did do a setback. I feel like it’s been 4 months, and I’m still not at my optimal yet. I still need to be very careful with a lot of things, but every day is better. I think what it teaches you is sometimes to slow down because you think everything is happening according to you, and you set a time for things, and then something like this happens.”

The actress recalled that she decided to let go of her work commitments and other things to focus on her recovery.

“I remember that within the first week, I surrendered. I was like, OK, it’s going to take its own time, and I have to be OK with letting go of certain things, letting go of certain work commitments, and then I bounced back stronger and completed the shoot of my film. Every day was a task to sail through, but then I think it just reiterates the fact that life is very uncertain” said Rakul Preet.

The ‘De De Pyaar De’ actress also said that her injury and its aftermath taught her to be thankful for small things, which we often ignore in our daily lives.

“We’ve got to be thankful for every small thing we do like. I’m very, very thankful for it. Sometimes, we don’t value it, right, like tying your shoelaces. I couldn’t do that for three months or you know, just sitting on bed for coffee, but I had to sit on a chair. I couldn’t sit on a bed. So just small things that you start becoming thankful for.”
