Reportedly, the accident took place at around 3:30 a.m. as Ameen and his friend were travelling towards Guindy along Jawaharlal Nehru Road. The collision reportedly occurred near Olympia Tech Park when a cab entered the main road from a side road.

The impact resulted in both vehicles being damaged, while Ameen and his friend suffered minor injuries. They were taken to a private hospital, where doctors examined them and provided the necessary treatment. Police have confirmed that their injuries were not serious and that both were later discharged.

A passenger who was travelling in the cab was also injured in the collision. The passenger was taken to the Kalaignar Centenary Super Speciality Hospital for treatment and was subsequently discharged.

At present, there have been no reports of life-threatening injuries among those involved in the accident. The circumstances surrounding the collision are, however, being investigated by the Adyar Traffic Investigation Wing (TIW).

The police are examining the sequence of events to determine how the cab entered Jawaharlal Nehru Road and whether factors such as speed contributed to the accident. Investigators are also expected to review CCTV footage recorded by cameras installed around the accident spot. Statements from the drivers and occupants of both vehicles will also form part of the investigation.

The accident took place during the early morning hours, when traffic on the arterial road was relatively light. Jawaharlal Nehru Road, also known as the Inner Ring Road, is one of Chennai’s major traffic corridors and connects several residential and commercial areas across the city.

A.R. Ameen is the son of Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman and has established himself as a singer and performer. He has worked on several musical projects and has also performed alongside his father at concerts and other musical events.

The Adyar Traffic Investigation Wing is continuing its enquiry to establish the exact cause of the collision and determine whether any traffic violations played a role in the accident.
