While the precise explanation for death is yet to be confirmed, initial reports suggest that an electrical shock attributable to a possible short circuit can have led to the accident. Authorities are awaiting the post-mortem report for clarity.<\/p>\n Chandradhari Yadav is survived by his wife and two daughters. Following the incident, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) and FSSAMU approached the producers of Love & War<\/em> looking for financial assistance and support for the family.<\/p>\n The film’s production house has reportedly offered Rs 40 lakhs as compensation to Yadav’s family. Nonetheless, union representatives say additional support is needed to secure the longer term of his dependents. FWICE president B.N. Tiwari, in keeping with a TOI report, said, \u201cOther than monetary compensation, we now have requested the producer to take responsibility for the kids’s education. Employees are sometimes made to work far beyond the prescribed eight to 10 hours, and there may be a limit to how much an individual can physically stretch themselves at work.\u201d<\/p>\n He added, \u201cOnce the post-mortem report comes, we are going to resolve our next plan of action. Irrespective of how big the producer is or how big a movie is being made, employees’ lives can’t be put in danger.\u201d<\/p>\n FWICE honorary general secretary Ashok Dubey revealed that Yadav had reportedly been working repeatedly on the set for several days. \u201cChandradhari had been working repeatedly on the set for the past three days and had been on duty from 7 am until 3 am on the day of the incident. In accordance with those present, he suffered an electrical shock and was rushed to hospital, where he passed away,\u201d Dubey said.<\/p>\n He further stated that the federation has requested employment opportunities for Yadav’s wife throughout the production house. Ashoke Pandit, president of the Indian Film and Television Directors’ Association (IFTDA) and chief advisor to FWICE, stressed the necessity for normal inspections and compliance checks.<\/p>\n \u201cWe’ve got repeatedly urged producer bodies, studios and government authorities to conduct regular audits of sets, electrical wiring and cabling, considering that 150 to 200 employees are sometimes present on a set,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cThere are lives at stake and significant investments involved in constructing these sets. Mandatory compliance with fire, electrical and structural safety norms and comprehensive SOPs is the necessity of the hour.\u201d<\/p>\n Also Read:\u00a0Sanjay Leela Bhansali\u2019s Love & War gears up for 15 to 20-day song schedule in May<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Catch us for up to date Bollywood News, Latest Bollywood Movies update, Box office collection, Latest Movies Release , Bollywood News Hindi, Entertainment News, Bollywood Live News Today & Upcoming Movies 2026 and stay updated with latest hindi movies only on Bollywood Hungama.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A tragic incident on the set of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming film Love & War has reignited concerns about safety standards and dealing conditions within the film industry.
