Nehha Pendse has opened up about a disturbing incident she experienced in Mumbai, calling it the “most terrifying one second” of her life.In an interaction with Hauterrfly, the actress recalled how the incident took place early one morning when she had stepped out for a jog.
‘He asked for directions… and then suddenly grabbed me’
Nehha shared that a car stopped near her and a man inside asked for directions. Since she couldn’t hear him clearly, she walked closer.“Jaise hi main paas gayi, usne achanak mujhe pakad liya aur usse pehle ki main kuch samajh paati, woh gaadi lekar nikal gaya,” she said. (As soon as I went closer, he suddenly grabbed me and before I could understand anything, he sped away in the car.)
‘I hit his car with my key remote’
Reacting instantly, Nehha threw her car key remote at the vehicle.“Mere paas meri Cruze gaadi ki chaabi thi, uska bada block remote tha. Maine zor se de maara uski gaadi par, woh peeche ke screen par laga,” she recalled. (I had my car key with a heavy remote block. I threw it hard at his car and it hit the rear screen.)
‘I froze… what if he reversed?’
“Usne zor se brake maara… us waqt meri halat kharab ho gayi thi. Ek second ke liye woh ruk gaya… mujhe laga agar usne gaadi reverse le li toh main kya karti,” she added. (He slammed the brakes… I was terrified. He stopped for a second and I kept thinking, what if he reversed the car? What would I have done?)According to Nehha, the man briefly stopped, possibly to check the damage, and then sped away.
‘Woh ek second aaj tak nahi bhool paayi’
Calling it the scariest moment of her life, Nehha said, “Woh meri life ka sabse scary one second tha… jo main kabhi nahi bhool paungi.” (That was the scariest one second of my life… something I will never forget.)
