Limpopo musician Kharishma, whose real name is Melita Mogale, was critically injured in a car crash in Polokwane around 4 a.m. Friday, that left one person dead. The collision happened at Grobler and Magazyn streets near Primary School PEMPS. Police said the cause is under investigation after early accounts pointed to another vehicle. Kharishma and another passenger were taken to Polokwane Hospital with serious injuries.

The 20-year-old artist is known for energetic performances and the song Inama. The Limpopo Artists Movement said its provincial chairperson visited her at the hospital, and Premier Dr. Phophi Ramathuba conveyed support. Fans shared messages and condolences online. Residents have raised concerns about speeding and visibility on that route, and authorities appealed for information from witnesses. Kharishma survived a separate crash in August 2024 on the R37 near Ga-Kgwete and later returned to performing. Industry voices said the latest incident highlights risks for performers traveling long hours, as communities focus on supporting survivors and the family of the person who died.
