67 glass pieces were taken out of Mahim Chaudhry’s face 

Mahima Chaudhry met with an accident in Bengaluru when a vehicle came from the wrong side and rammed into her car. She was heading for an early morning shoot of ‘Dil Kya Kare’ with Ajay Devgn. Recalling the same, Mahima told Radio Nasha, “When my accident happened, I didn’t realise that I have these many cuts on my face. I found later when I went to the bathroom and saw the mirror. Before that, I was telling Prakash ji (Prakash Jha, director) that if nothing has happened, let’s shoot. Because doctors were done with the scans etc. He said, ‘No no, let’s wait, we’ll just go out and talk about dates.’ When I saw my face, I realised that my face is injured.”
