MUMBAI: In a scary incident, the set of the TV show Shaurya Aur Anokhi Ki Kahani caught fire yesterday. Fortunately, the unit working on another set swung into action and doused the flames before they could spread.
A unit hand informed us, “We were shooting a sequence in the kitchen when a fire broke outside. It must have been a case of cross-wiring, as construction is in process in that area. The curtains on the first floor immediately caught fire. It was first spotted by the unit member of another show shooting next door. They immediately rushed towards the spot with water and fire extinguishers and helped us douse it. We were prepared to call the fire brigade, but fortunately, we managed to douse the fire in time. Everyone is safe and only a portion of the set has been damaged.”.
We hear that actor Alka Kaushal was shooting for a sequence during the incident. Despite repeated attempts, we couldn’t reach her for comment.
Producer duo Deeya and Tony Singh told us, “The cast of Shaurya Aur Anokhi Ki Kahani was shooting for an important scene when a part of the set caught fire. The extent of damage and the cause of the fire is yet to be determined. We have, for now, controlled the fire with all the necessary fire safety equipment on the sets since the magnitude of the fire was minor in nature. Everyone, including the artists and the crew members, is safe and the show will premiere as scheduled.”.
