Prabhas’ upcoming pan Indian project Adipurush, under the direction of Bollywood Director Om Raut, is one of the most anticipated films of Indian cinema. On Tuesday morning, in what can be called a surprise announcement, Adipurush director Om Raut gave an update saying the movie began its regular shooting schedule. Prabhas was present at the puja ceremony which was done before kicking off the shoot.
However, in an unfortunate turn of events, a huge fire broke out on the sets of Adipurush in Goregaon, Mumbai. The cause of the fire is being attributed to a short circuit due to faulty electrical wiring. Om Raut, Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan were not present at the venue when the fire broke out and there has been no loss of life or injuries. However, the green screen setup was completely destroyed in the fire.
