Akhil Akkineni on facing accident and delaying for his comeback
Speaking to the Idlebrain YouTube channel, Akhil revealed that he had a freak accident after the release of Agent that needed two surgeries. He said, "I can understand; it is a long break. Half was my fault, half was not in my hands. I had an injury with a 16-month recovery. It took some time. I had two surgeries on my left hand. 3-4 months after the Agent (movie) was released, I had an injury. It was a freak accident. I slipped on a wet bathroom floor, and I fell on a glass piece. It cut through my vein, nerve and tendon on my left hand's ring finger and middle finger. I have 48 stitches here."
He further stated, "It was an unpleasant injury that shook me completely; for almost 7-8 months I could not lift any weights. It took 16 months in total to completely recover. To mentally recover and gain the strength to hit the gym again, take action, anything. I couldn’t do it. Combined with that and my last film’s result, I think it was a journey I had to go through. The only thing I can reassure you is that I will not let it happen again."
