Actress Mai Davika revealed that she and her husband Teo Chanthawich spent their first wedding anniversary in the hospital after she was admitted for severe food poisoning. Speaking at the "Thailand Creative Archive" exhibition opening at Cloud 11 on Sukhumvit Road on November 11, Mai said she was still recovering, had only just removed her IV drip, and felt weak. She plans a belated celebration once she fully recovers.

Regarding her donation to Boom Panadda's "Do Good" foundation, Mai acknowledged the controversy has made her more vigilant. She emphasized that her only wish is for donations to reach those truly in need. For future charitable acts, she may choose to purchase and deliver necessities herself, and she advised the public to scrutinize a foundation's trustworthiness before donating.

Mai described the food poisoning as extremely severe, noting she had been on IV fluids for two full days and was still experiencing symptoms. Her husband Teo was very concerned but avoided close contact to prevent infection transmission. Mai said this was not the first time her health had suffered due to a heavy workload. She lamented missing a nice anniversary dinner, saying she could only eat rice porridge while craving soy milk.

Asked about the overseas premiere of her grandmother-horror film in Indonesia, Mai said the audience reaction was intense and gratifying, with viewers screaming and clapping. She hopes Thai audiences will watch with eyes open, as her horror makeup took seven hours per session across five schedules.
