Tamil actor Jiiva and wife meet with a car accident- DETAILS INSIDE

Tamil actor Jiiva and his wife Supriya were involved in a car accident on Wednesday evening while returning from Salem to Chennai. The incident occurred near Kallakurichi, Tamil Nadu, but fortunately, both Jiiva and his wife escaped without any major injuries. The news was confirmed by industry tracker Manobala on X, who shared images and videos of the accident.

In his post, Manobala wrote, "Actor Jiiva met with a car accident at Kallakurichi. Fortunately, despite severe damage to the car, both Jiiva and his wife escaped without any injury." The pictures revealed the front of Jiiva's blue car heavily damaged. In a video, Jiiva can be seen making a phone call for help, visibly frustrated after a passerby made an unhelpful remark.

According to reports, the accident took place around 3 pm on a highway near Kanimayoor village. Jiiva’s car reportedly swerved and hit a meridian while trying to avoid a two-wheeler that was crossing the road. Both Jiiva and Supriya were later transported safely to Chennai in another vehicle. Jiiva later confirmed to the media that neither he nor his wife had sustained any serious injuries and that they were "doing fine."

Jiiva, who has been a prominent figure in the Tamil film industry, was recently in the headlines for his remarks on the Justice K Hema Committee report, which highlighted the issue of sexual harassment in the film industry. At an event, Jiiva expressed frustration with how such issues are being addressed publicly, stating that the film industry should aim to maintain a positive atmosphere. His comments, particularly about the issue being more prevalent in the Kerala film industry, sparked a debate.

On the work front, Jiiva is set to star in the upcoming film Black, alongside Priya Bhavani Shankar. He also recently portrayed ex-Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy in Yatra 2. Fans can look forward to his performances in other forthcoming projects, including Methavi and Kannappa, further solidifying his presence in the industry despite recent setbacks.
