The good looking hunk Akshay Dogra, who is winning accolades as Jagan on &TV's Waaris (Viniyard Films), is having a tough time these days as the actor is in terrible pain.

We hear that continuous shooting, excessive stretching while playing football and hectic travelling have taken a toll on Akshay's health, eventually giving him a severe back ache.

When we contacted Akshay, he shared with us, "Although I firmly believe in maintaining a balance between work and personal life but belonging to the entertainment industry as an actor, I also have a responsibility because we have to churn out contents everyday. Unfortunately I got this back injury because of playing Football, stretching too much and waiting for two and a half hours in the traffic."

We wonder how he is managing his shoots. He said, "I am just taking pain killers and managing because as they say, the show must go on. It’s difficult for me to get an off because of the current track which requires me."

Get well soon, Akshay!
