Light man loses his life on the sets of Laagi Tujhse Lagan

A very unfortunate incident happened on the sets of COLORS' Laagi Tujhse Lagan last night, when a light man met with his death after falling from a height of 30 feet.

Our source from the set tells us, "The shoot was on and the light man was positioned at a height of about 30 feet. He was adjusting the lights when he lost balance and fell down. He was soon rushed to the hospital but was declared dead by doctors. Few people who witnessed the incident feel that the guy died on the spot".

When contacted, Vinay Rohrra aka Bajirao who was shooting when the incident happened said, "Yes, the light man did fall down. We rushed him to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead. It was a very sad day for all of us, after which the shoot got cancelled".

We tried contacting Producer Hemal Thakkar, but he remained unavailable.

We also hear that a similar incident took place on the sets of Sony's Jubilee Comedy Circus when a person from the unit fell down from a height; he is presently admitted to a hospital but his condition continues to be serious.

Our condolences are with the light man's family..
