Ajay
Devgn
and
Konkona
Sen
escaped
a
mishap
on
the
sets
of
their
next
film
Atithi
Tum
Kab
Jaoge?
on
Thursday
afternoon
when
the
set
they
were
shooting
on,
caught
fire.
Ajay
and
Konkana
were
shooting
the
title
song
promo
at
Filmistan
with
choreographer
Ahmed
Khan
and
junior
artistes
dressed
as
doctors.
The
set
was
that
of
a
laboratory
with
lots
of
dry
ice
in
it.
Talking
about
it,
producer
Amita
Pathak
says,
"There
was
some
kind
of
voltage
fluctuation
and
bulbs
started
bursting
followed
by
smoke.
Almost
all
the
gadgets
--
from
the
DVD
player
to
the
monitor
--
got
shorted.
I
was
sitting
with
my
back
to
the
monitor
when
smoke
began
billowing
out
it.
Ajay
asked
us
to
throw
some
dry
ice
on
it.
But
finally,
the
smoke
became
thick
and
overpowering
and
we
all
had
to
rush
out
of
the
sets.
We
realised
that
a
fire
had
broken
out!"
First
the
actors
--
Ajay
and
Konkona
--
were
evacuated
and
then,
the
entire
crew
with
the
400-odd
dancers
and
junior
artists
left
the
sets.
Amita
continues,
"We
always
have
a
few
people
from
the
fire
department
present
on
the
sets
for
such
emergencies
and
they
managed
to
snuff
out
the
fire
in
time.
But
for
that,
we
had
to
stop
the
shooting
for
two
hours.
I
am
happy
to
state
that
there
were
no
injuries.
Though
my
unit
was
calm
and
composed,
I
was
a
bit
panicky
as
I
didn't
want
anyone
to
get
burnt.
I
was
very
tense
till
the
last
person
went
out
of
the
sets."
One
flip
side
to
the
whole
incident
was
that
everyone
thought
that
the
fire
was
a
prank
being
played
by
Devgn
--
a
known
prankster.
Amita
says,
"He
was
the
first
one
to
point
out
about
the
smoke.
And
while
the
rest
of
us
were
panicking,
Ajay
was
the
one
standing
around
relaxed
and
cool.
When
things
got
really
messy,
we
realised
he
wouldn't
have
done
something
that
could
have
endangered
our
lives."
