A massive fire broke out during the shooting of Dhanush’s upcoming film ‘Idli Kadai’. According to News18, the massive set built for the film in Andipatti in Theni district was completely gutted by the fire. The fire spread quickly due to strong winds, and the entire structure was reportedly reduced to ashes. Firefighters rushed to the spot and managed to douse the fire after a lot of effort.
The cause is under investigation; no injuries have been reported.
Thankfully, none of the crew was present at the scene when the fire broke out. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, but officials have confirmed that it is likely to have started after the shoot had already been shifted to a new location. No injuries were reported, and fans of the actor and the film breathed a sigh of relief as updates confirmed everyone’s safety.
The team is currently shooting in Thailand.
The cast and crew of ‘Idli Kaadi’ are currently in Thailand for a crucial phase of the shoot. The lead actors, including Sathyaraj, Parthiban and Arun Vijay, are part of the ongoing schedule in Bangkok. The team had earlier wrapped up the shoot in Anupatthi and Andipatthi before heading overseas. A fire broke out in the unused set, which was not yet dismantled, and it has reportedly been dismantled to complete some patchwork once the team wraps up their overseas schedule.
Dhanush’s fans are expressing concern and support.
As news of the fire spread, fans took to social media to express their concerns about the incident, but were reassured after learning that Dhanush and his team were unharmed. While the damage to the set was significant, production is continuing without delay, and the team is expected to resume shooting for additional portions at alternate locations.
