Sources said the couple had stepped out after dinner at The Guwahati Address restaurant near Zoo Tiniali and were crossing the road when the accident took place.

Following the incident, Vidyarthi turned to his Instagram to share a video message to reassure fans and well-wishers. 

"Rupali and I were crossing the street when a bike hit us. We are both fine. Rupali is under observation, and everything is okay. I am absolutely fine with just a minor injury," he said.


He also revealed that the injured biker had regained consciousness and expressed hope for his speedy recovery.
