Sarita was travelling along with her husband from Kamalpur in Gopalganj, Bihar, to Chittaranjan, West Bengal. Their high-speed car collided with the divider before reaching Nirsa Market Chowk. The aftermath of the crash was so devastating that the front part of the car was severely damaged. 

Pankaj's brother-in-law Rajesh was employed at Indian Railways and posted in West Bengal's Chitranjan. At the time the accident took place, he was returning from his village and heading to Chitranjan. There are no official updates on Sarita's health condition so far. Pankaj or any of his family members are yet to make a statement on the incident.

Pankaj was last seen in Homi Adajania's Murder Mubarak featuring Vijay Varma, Karishma Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Sanjay Kapoor, Tisca Chopra, Brijendra Kala and others. He will next feature in Amar Kaushik's Stree 2, starring Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurrana and others in crucial roles.
