Although no casualties were reported, a large portion of the film set was disrupted due to the fire. According to the latest reports, the producers of the film have suffered a loss of about Rs 2 to 2.5 crore. However, thanks to the insurance cover the makers had procured even before the film went on floors, the said amount has been covered.
