Saif Ali Khan is one of the most popular actors in Bollywood. The actor was a lead in Kya Kehna film which dealt with the subject of premarital s*x and had Preity Zinta playing a single teenage mother. However, are you aware that on the sets of the film, Saif had a terrible bike accident?
As per reports in India Today, the actor was performing a stunt and met with what he later described as ‘the worst accident’ of his life. Saif got more than a hundred stitches. In 2004, Saif and Preity appeared on the first season of Koffee With Karan and talked about how they became close friends after Kya Kehna. Recalling the incident, Saif said, “I rehearsed the motorcycle jump on Juhu beach on a ramp every day. We went to Khandala to shoot this sequence and it was raining, it was muddy. It wasn’t the same kind of ground.”
He joked that he was trying to impress Preity with the sequence. Saif said, “I thought, ‘let me try and impress her.’ The first time was okay, but I wanted to do it another time with josh. The bike skidded before I hit the ramp and I went flying. There was one rock in the middle of this field and I tumbled over about 30 times very quickly and then smack. I hit it. I felt some wetness, there was lots of blood, I was hurt. We went to the hospital and I would’ve looked like Frankenstein once they stitched me up. Preity said we can arrange a plastic surgeon and organized everything.”
