“Injuries suck.. and I was really hoping that no one will get to know.. but well… Sorry I’ve been MIA but hieeee! I’m hereeee! “It happened awhile ago ya and this is my 3rd injury back to back.. I should definitely learn to treat my body like a human body and not some machine..” she wrote.

The actor said one of the tendons connecting her right hip to her leg had detached during the filming of a dance sequence for “Mysaa”.

“But well umm the injury is basically.. ummm how do I explain it.. (make way for the biology teacher) so there are 4 tendons on each side of your hip that connects your hip to your leg and one of those tendons on my right hip apparently had detached and that has to attach again, for me to be able to lift my leg up and stuff.. and this happened during my dance shoot for ‘Mysaa’.. my god that’s the most aggressive film I’ve ever done for sure!” she added.

The actor, however, reassured fans that she was recovering well.

“It hurts but it’s not unbearable or something.. so ya that’s that.. and I feel like this is god saying you’ll never take a break if it’s left to you so here.. let me do it for you!” she said.

Mandanna described the injury as a “freak accident” and said she was making the most of her forced break by solving puzzles.

The actor also joked about missing her workout routine.

“Really really trying not to put on weight cz well I workout and run like a beast which keeps me in a decent shape and now I won’t be able to workout or run for awhile and if I can’t workout then what do I doooo.. I eat.. and I become a dessert monster.. so uh hoooo! “Well that’s about it.. what else did I miss.. nothing na.. if anything I’ll update soon. Love ya! Don’t worry ok..” she added.
