Actress Shilpa Shirodkar hits out at bus firm after car accident in Mumbai

Mumbai: Actress Shilpa Shirodkar encountered a distressing incident on Wednesday (August 13) when her vehicle was struck by a city bus. The former Bigg Boss 18 contestant took to Instagram to share images of the damage and criticised the authorities for what she described as negligence.

The pics posted on her Instagram Stories revealed the rear of her car bearing a large dent and shattered glass.

Sharing the details of the ordeal, she wrote a brief note alongside the images. “A Cityflo bus ran into my car today. And the people representing the office in Mumbai, Mr. Yogesh Kadam and Mr. Vilas Mankote, are telling me it’s not their company’s responsibility, it’s the driver’s responsibility. How ruthless are these guys? How much can a driver be earning!", Shilpa wrote.

She further appreciated the swift assistance from the police. “Thanks to @mumbaipolice and @cpmumbaipolice, they helped me file a police complaint without much problem. But the company refuses to take any responsibility for the incident. @cityflo.ind appreciate you to connect with me on this matter. Thankfully, my staff is fine and unhurt, but anything could have happened," she added.

Shilpa Shirodkar is gearing up for her return to films with the Telugu project Jatadhara. The movie features Sudheer Babu and Sonakshi Sinha in key roles and centres around the enigmatic Anantha Padmanabha Swamy Temple and its mystical legends. Described as a mythological supernatural thriller, it promises an engaging narrative, spectacular visuals, and an immersive big-screen experience. The first look, unveiled earlier this month, has already sparked curiosity among filmgoers.
