The sets of Luv Ranjan’s upcoming movie, which was built at Chitrakoot Ground in Mumbai, recently caught fire. The untitled film stars Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor in lead roles.
Now, the general secretary of FWICE has said that the federation will write a letter to Maharashtra chief minister and the BMC to ensure safety of workers and technicians.
Raising concern over the Chitrakoot fire, he said it would have been disastrous if hundreds of workers and technicians would have been on the film sets, when the mishap happened.
On Friday, a fire broke out at film sets installed at Chitrakoot Ground next to the Andheri Sports Complex, officials of Mumbai’s fire brigade department said.
While initial reports said there were no injuries or deaths, it was later reported that one person, a 32-year-old man, was declared brought dead at the Cooper Hospital.
Multiple news reports said that one of the sets on which the fire broke out was of Luv Ranjan’s project starring Ranbir and Shraddha.
As per the reports, none of the actors were shooting at the time, but some crew members were present on the spot.
