Hema Malini is shocked with the number of people trolling her following the recent accident wherein a child died and she was injured. Says a source close to the actress-politician, “Hemaji is a very strong woman. But she is shaken by the way she is being portrayed as an offender who allowed the little girl in the accident to go medically unattended. When the accident took place she wasn’t even aware of what was happening and where she was being taken.”
Now, back in Mumbai with her family, Hema’s wounds are healing. “The injuries on her face will heal completely in two weeks. There’s unlikely to be any permanent scars. But the scars of public admonishment and ridicule will never heal,” says a close family friend, “She is with her family; her daughters and sons-in-law are with her. But she is saddened by the way she’s being made out to be an irresponsible citizen,” added the friend.
When contacted, Hema Malini simply said, “I am recovering at home. I am sure everything will be fine.”
