Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff's upcoming film Bade Miyan Chote Miyan's makeup artist Shravan Vishwakarma was recently attacked by a leopard at the Goregaon Filmcity in Mumbai. The 27-year-old was on his bike when he collided with a leopard on his way back. He said his treatment is being taken care of by the production house.
Talking to a news channel, Shravan said, “I had come to drop my friend off the bike. It was a little further from the shoot location and a pig crossed the road. I thought of getting out of there quickly. As soon as I increased the speed of the bike, I saw that a leopard was running after the pig. My bike collided with the leopard. After that, all I remember is that I fell from the bike and the leopard was roaming around me, then I don't remember anything. I had been unconscious. Later people probably came and took me to the doctor.”
Meanwhile, Suresh Shyamlal Gupta, President of All India Cine Workers (AICWA) urged government to take serious measures. He told the news channel, "Realising the seriousness of the matter, I have also tagged the Chief Minister and told them that such an incident has happened many times. As the President of All India Cine Workers, I demand to know who will guarantee the safety from the leopard that comes again and again in Film City, where thousands of shoots take place. I want the government to pay attention to this matter. Filmcity has been built on three hundred acres. If you visit here at night, there is no facility of even street lights. There is a lack of lights and because of which accidents are happening continuously. The matter is near the helipad area, where the shooting of Akshay's film was going on.”
Vashu Bhagnani and Pooja Entertainment present Bade Miyan Chote Miyan in association with AAZ film. Written and directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh, Jackky Bhagnani, Himanshu Kishan Mehra and Ali Abbas Zafar, the film is all set to release in cinemas in December this year.
