I'm super excited to be a part of this project. It's a great team and I'm looking forward to working with Prabhas as well. As always, what drew me to the role was the character I get to portray. Her flow in the larger narrative is interesting and I'm excited to bring her to life.
Yesterday, a fire broke out on the sets of Adipursh
On Tuesday evening, a fire broke out on the sets of Adipurush in Mumbai reportedly around 4.13 pm. The film's shoot was happening at the Retro Grounds behind Inorbit Mall in Goregaon when the incident happened. Eight fire engines were reportedly rushed to the spot, and no injuries were reported.

A spokesperson reportedly confirmed a fire on the sets and that everyone was safe and sound. "We thank Mumbai fire brigade and Mumbai Police for their support," the spokesperson said. Saif and Prabhas were not present on the sets when the incident happened, according to reports.
Pinkvilla reported that the cause of the fire was a short circuit. Adipurush had gone on the floors on Tuesday, and its director Om Raut had announced the same on social media earlier. Sharing a new poster of the film, he wrote, "Aarambh". The poster's tagline was, "Celebrating the victory of good over evil."
We hope and pray that all those involved in the unfortunate incident are safe and healthy.
