MUMBAI: Comedian-actor, Ali Asgar, on Monday met with a serious car accident but luckily survived by escaping unhurt.
The incident took place in the city of Mumbai (February 11) early morning.
Recalling the accident, a visibly shaken actor told TimesofIndia.com, “I was driving the car. The entire car is damaged. I was waiting at signal and suddenly I felt a loud thud and the next thing I realised, my car went ahead and hit a truck parked in front.”
“The car bonnet opened and I had a lucky escape. By God’s grace nothing happened. I dread to think what would have happened had it been a moving car or if there were people walking. Why this rash driving? I am shaken after this,” Ali was quoted as saying.
The former member of The Kapil Sharma Show added, “Thankfully there were police around. A crowd gathered and the police came for help. They took care of everything and also took the guy who rammed into my car.”
He later tweeted, “Just wanted to Thank Pydhonie Police Station..specially PSI Liladhar Patil for being warm understanding & helpful-my car met wit an accident but the way he handled the Situation is greatly Appreciated..Thank you PSI Patil ..Thank you @MumbaiPolice -Salute ”
