Malaika Arora On Her Car ACCIDENT: 'All I Wanted To Know Was Whether I Was Alive Or Not, Still Get Flashes That Send Shivers Down My Spine'
Earlier this month, Malaika Arora met with a car accident on the outskirts of Mumbai when she was returning from Pune after attending a fashion event. Reportedly, a bus and two cars collided with each other and one of them had hit Malaika’s SUV. The actress sustained minor injuries on her forehead and eye and was immediately rushed to Apollo Hospital. Now, in a recent interview, Malaika recalled her traumatic accident and revealed after her car was hit, all that she wanted to know was 'whether she was alive or not.'

Speaking to Mid-Day, the Chaiyya Chaiyya girl said physically she is recovering, but mentally, she feels that it won't go away completely. Malaika was quoted saying, “It’s not something I want to remember. Nor is it something that I can forget. Physically, I am recovering, but mentally, I feel that it doesn’t go away completely. Sometimes, if I am watching a movie that depicts an accident or shows blood, I get flashes that send shivers down my spine. I have to go through the process, and will eventually be able to move past it.”

She added, “I was in shock. [On collision], my head was hurting, and all I wanted to know was whether I was alive or not. There was too much blood, too much commotion to understand what was happening. I felt an immense jolt, and the rest was a blur till I reached the hospital.” ALSO READ:Malaika Arora Car ACCIDENT: Actress To Be Discharged From Hospital Today, FIR To Register After Probe-Report




After getting discharged from the hospital, Malaika Arora penned a lengthy note where she talked about her accident and said thinking about it in retrospect she feels like a scene from a film. The actress also thanked doctors, her family, and friends for being with her in those difficult times. An excerpt from her post read, “I am so very grateful for that. And finally ofcourse the love that came in from my friends, family, my team and my Insta fam was just so reassuring. Moments like these are not epiphanies but strong reminders that we must always offer gratitude to those - known and unknown - who shower you with love and good wishes at a time you need it the most.”

For the unversed, Malaika Arora had gone to Pune to attend the Pune Times Fashion week event and on her way back to Mumbai, she met with a horrific car accident.
