Apparently, she was resting her head on a cushion, which softened the impact of the accident. The local police have registered an FIR and are investigating the matter.
She was rushed to Navi Mumbai's Apollo Hospital, where she was said to be recovering well, although shaken by the incident, and was likely to be discharged on Sunday. In the latest update on Malaika's health, it is learned that she has come back home in an ambulance and her boyfriend Arjun Kapoor was accompanying her. Not just Arjun, Malaika's younger sister Amrita Arora was also with her as she was discharged from the facility where she was being treated.

Earlier, there were rumours that all is not well between Arjun and Malaika. However, the Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar actor dismissed reports of split with his partner, saying there is no place for "shady rumors" in his life. They have been in a relationship for the last four years.
In recent years, the couple has gradually opened up about their relationship in interviews and are often photographed together at family gatherings, film parties and vacation. Malaika, who was previously married to actor-producer Arbaaz Khan for 19 years, made her relationship with Arjun Instagram official in 2019 on the actor's birthday.
