Malayalam actor Shine Tom Chacko had hit the headlines recently after the actor lost his father in a fatal car accident. Recovering from the incident himself, the actor opens up for the first time.
Shine Tom Chacko details about losing his father
In his conversation with The Cue, Shine Tom Chacko said, “I was lying in the back seat. I’d usually wake up from sleep and ask my daddy for a biscuit. Daddy would then give me a biscuit two or three times. However, when I suddenly opened my eyes, the vehicle had suffered a crash. I was in the back. After that, my dad never spoke with any of us again.”
Talking more about the incident, the Devara actor detailed how the issue occurred rather suddenly. He added, “Until then, an accident was just a sight to me. But when you go through it yourself…I truly broke down and cried, standing on the road, I kept on saying - Someone please come and help, someone please get us to the hospital.”
Shine Tom Chacko further added how his brother Joe John Chacko was sitting in the front seat but somehow managed to escape unharmed. Seeing him walk made the actor wonder whether he is truly okay or is going to collapse with some undetected injury.
The actor continued that his father had restrained him from driving because of taking medications from rehab facilities. Speaking about his mother, Shine revealed she is yet to completely accept his father’s passing, constantly asking about his whereabouts while she herself is bedridden with a hip injury.
