Sai Dharam Tej spent over a month in the hospital after an accident at Madhupur in Hyderabad on September 10. The 35-year-old was riding his motorcycle when the vehicle slipped and he fell on the road. He was first taken to the Medicare Hospital for the initial treatment before he was shifted to the Apollo Hospital in the city. The doctors then informed that he suffered collarbone fracture and soft tissue injuries. Though there were no injuries to the vital organs, he was kept under observation in the Intensive Care Unit. Sai Dharam Tej slipped into a coma.

There used to be a regular flow of star visitors at the hospital.  This included his cousins, fellow Telugu actors like Ram Charan, Allu Arjun and others. His uncle, actor-politician Pawan Kalyan had shared that he had not opened his eyes yet and continued to be in a coma.
