As per reports in Mumbai Mirror, the set erected in 2008 at the famous ND Studio in Karjat had a massive fire outbreak on Friday afternoon, resulting in a major portion of the sets being destroyed. Owned by Indian art director Nitin Chandrakant Desai, it is one of the tourist attractions for years now, as the makers did not dismantle the sets even after the film shoot wrapped up.

The fire was brought under control almost after an hour and a half and now the cooling operation is being conducted. However, so far no exact reason behind the fire has been given out by the authorities. But it is suspected that the fire broke due to a short circuit in the electrical unit.
