At least seven vehicles were damaged when a speeding car, driven by a TV actor, hit them at Santacruz, police said. The incident took place in the early hours of Monday when Ruhi Shaileshkumar Singh, 30, who was allegedly in an inebriated state, dashed her car with other vehicles, a police official said.
Four two-wheelers and three cars were damaged, but no one was injured, he said. A video of the incident has gone viral where Singh can be seen arguing with people who had gathered around her car, she is also seen accusing police of assaulting her.
However, the renowned actress Ruhi Singh took to her Instagram and stated that the person is of the same name and not her and someone else with the same name. This came to light after a lot of media portals were using her picture for the news.
The actress also released a statement to avoid any confusion regarding the same. She said, “ This is to clarify, that media reports of ‘Ruhi Singh’ which have been published today are in no way related to me. The lady in concern possibly shares her name with me. It is amply clear from the video, that it is someone else. I would request the media to please make a note of this as any wrong info or confusion could be harmful to me.”
The official said a case has been registered against the actor and investigation was underway.
