Padmavati Arson Attack! Film-makers File An FIR With The Police
Padmavati arson attack! The film-makers have filed an FIR with the police stating that the set has suffered severe damage and equipment & costumes have been burnt.
The sets of Padmavati were burnt to the ground by unidentified miscreants and the film-makers have suffered a massive loss due to the damage to equipment and costumes. A spokesperson from Bhansali Productions was quoted as saying,
"The
sets
of
Padmavati
set
in
Kolhapur
in
Maharashtra
region
witnessed
an
unfortunate
incident
last
night
at
around
12.30am,
when
certain
miscreants
attacked
the
film's
set
and
set
it
on
fire
in
an
attempt
to
damage
the
property.
A
complaint
has
been
filed
to
investigate
this
matter
further,
but
we
are
grateful
that
there
has
been
no
loss
of
life
or
harm
to
anybody
on
the
set.
While,
thankfully
the
incident
occurred
after
we
had
wrapped
our
shoot
for
the
day
and
all
the
artists,
cast
and
crew
were
safely
away;
unfortunately,
around
70
-
80%
of
costumes
and
jewellery
for
the
movie
have
been
destroyed."
Sanjay Leela Bhansali has been facing severe opposition from various fringe groups and they have also attacked, vandalised and created a ruckus on the sets previously. We hope the police will bring the perpetrators of the crime to justice.
