Veteran Bollywood actor and The Great Indian Kapil Show fame Archana Puran Singh met with a severe accident on the sets of her upcoming film.

Archana speaks about her accident

Archana's son Ayushmaan Sethi broke the news to his brother Aaryamann, who was moved to tears upon learning about their mother's accident. The actor was admitted to Mumbai's Nanavati Hospital. In the video shot by her husband and actor Parmeet Sethi, she said, "I was in shock. Never thought something like this would happen to me. I was doing a night shift in Virar. I called Rajkummar Rao and told him that I was very upset about leaving the shoot. So, today, I'm returning to Virar to complete the shoot, because those poor guys are going to suffer losses otherwise. I'm wearing a full-sleeve outfit, and they'll shoot me from angles where you won't be able to tell I'm injured."

She added, "I have learned a lot of lessons through this experience. Anything can happen but eventually everything turns out to be alright. My face could have gone. But it's just my wrist. It will be fine. This has happened for a reason. They've told me they need me only for a few hours."
