Mandaadi director Mathimaran says actress Mahima Nambiar sustained injuries from a major accident shortly before a song shoot. He recalls that about five days before the filming, her face was badly damaged and required medical treatment.
Mathimaran states that she received 20 stitches and later returned to the set after plastic surgery. He says she comes back on day six following the procedure, allowing the song sequence to proceed. The accounts focus on the timing of the injuries relative to the shoot and the steps taken for her recovery.
Both reports attributed the details to the director’s remarks, offering the same core timeline: accident, stitches, plastic surgery, and a return to filming. No additional, independently reported figures or confirmations are included in the provided material beyond the director’s statements.
