Mumbai: As a reaction to the sensationalized news about her accident, actor-turned-politician Hema Malini turned to twitter and accused the father of the deceased 4 year old girl for not following traffic rules saying that accident could have been averted if he had followed traffic rules.
The accident that took place in Dausa, Rajasthan when Hema Malini’s speeding Mercedes collided head-on with an Alto carrying six people on July 2, resulted in Hema Malini fracturing her nose and suffering from minor injuries and the death of a four-year -old girl.

“How I wish the girl’s father had followed the traffic rules – then this accident could have been averted & the lil one’s life safe!” said Hema on Twitter. She also tweeted that her “heart goes out to the child who unnecessarily lost her life”.
