Popular Nollywood actress, Adunni Ade has disclosed how she was dealing with health challenges while taking one of her movies, ‘Soóle’ to the cinemas.

According to the light-skinned actress, she had to constantly visit the hospital for IV during her meet and greet in the cinemas.

The thespian explained that she was so Ill her doctor disapproved of her constant trips but she remained relentless.

Speaking on the latest episode of Lilian Afegbai‘s Youtube show, the mother of two explained that she put a lot of effort into the movie.

She said, “Now filming, shooting a movie, it can be stressful but then actually having that project in cinemas, that is something totally different.

“Man, if you’re not sound, if you’re not mentally stable, you can lose it. So many people didn’t know this.

“In fact, I think maybe one or two people knew, but I was ill, I was sick, I had lost so much weight. I was doing meet and greet back and forth [between hospital and cinema]. I would leave the hospital on admission, receive IVs, I have very bad veins, my leg being poked, popped up on hospital beds taking IVs and doctors telling me “ma’am you can’t leave”. I’m like no, I have money to be made. He’d be like “no, you need your life”. I said I understand, but let me make this money so I can come and pay this hospital bill. And I would take IVs, I would leave. Go straight to the cinema, stand there, smile with people, meet a lot of amazing people.”
