Unlucky Again: After Alia, Varun & Aditya’s Injuries, Kalank Set Collapses

Here’s yet another setback for Team Kalank. After three of its cast members – Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan and Aditya Roy Kapur – were injured on-set, the third schedule of the film came to an abrupt halt after a part of the set gave way due to heavy rains in the city.

A report in Mumbai Mirror suggests that the film’s set had been erected at Chitrakoot Grounds in Andheri and the team had shot certain portions before the incident at the site.

A source told the tabloid, “The team was to shoot a 20-day schedule starting July 31. Now, the shoot is postponed for at least two weeks as dates for all the cast members who have scenes together had to be reworked. The makers have decided to wait for the rains to let up before resuming shoot.”

Work on rebuilding the set, which is designed by Amrita Mahal, is expected to begin shortly.

Earlier this month, Aditya Roy Kapur had hurt his jaw and broke his tooth while shooting for an action sequence on set.

Before that Varun Dhawan, who too was shooting an action sequence for the film, injured his arm resulting in the shoot coming to an abrupt halt.

Alia had tripped on the stairs and injured her foot. It had to be bandaged but Alia was back to shooting despite the pain because the team is on a tight schedule.

Hope this ends the rough patch for the film’s team.
