It’s not something I want to remember. Nor is it something that I can forget,” begins Malaika Arora, making it evident that though she has physically recovered from the accident, its emotional trauma lingers on. On April 2, the actor-model, returning from a fashion show in Pune, met with an accident on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. Arora, who had suffered a deep gash on her forehead, was rushed to a hospital in Navi Mumbai where she was administered stitches, and discharged a day later.
Over two weeks on, she has resumed work, but admits that the incident has left a deep impact. “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.”
