A security convoy transporting Bollywood icon Akshay Kumar and his wife Twinkle Khanna became entangled in a multi-vehicle collision in Mumbai’s Juhu area late Monday evening. The incident occurred as the celebrity couple returned from an international trip and were en route to their residence from the airport.
According to police reports and media sources including India Today, the chain-reaction accident began when a speeding Mercedes vehicle collided with an autorickshaw from behind. The impact propelled the auto-rickshaw into a Toyota Innova SUV that formed part of the actor’s security detail. While Kumar and Khanna were traveling in a separate vehicle and remained unharmed, the auto driver and one passenger sustained injuries and were promptly transported to a nearby medical facility. Authorities confirmed no fatalities resulted from the incident.
Mumbai Police responded immediately to the scene, launching a comprehensive investigation that resulted in filing charges against the Mercedes driver for rash and negligent driving. Footage of the damaged vehicles circulated widely across social media platforms, showing bystanders providing assistance at the accident site.
The incident occurred shortly after the celebrity couple celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on January 17, with both sharing affectionate social media posts commemorating the milestone. Kumar, who maintains a rigorous filming schedule with multiple projects including ‘Welcome 3’ and ‘Hera Pheri 3’ slated for 2026, has not yet issued an official statement regarding the traffic incident.
