Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin team continues to shoot for the show after their set was gutted on Friday

A massive fire on Friday evening destroyed the set of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin Fortunately there were no casualties, but the team members have lost most of their belongings that they had carried to the set that day.
But as they say, the show must go on. The actors and technicians of Ghum are back to work. In fact they began shooting the very next day. A source says, “The shooting didn’t come to a halt. Work started on Saturday. The original set is fully burnt, so the shoot is taking place at another set in Film City, which is quite similar to the original. Some scenes are also being shot outdoors. So the continuity of the story is being maintained and one can’t tell that there was such a big incident two days back.”

Meanwhile, the fire has put the focus on how safe TV sets are especially when they shoot fire sequences. Producer JD Majethia, who is the Chairman of Indian Film and Television Producers Council, says, “There are guidelines regarding licenses and approvals before starting to shoot on a set. These norms are adhered to by producers. We have to keep fire extinguishers on the sets and also ensure that they are renewed every year. We need to get lights that do not require too many wires because open wires are risky. As an industry, we must look at options, which can make our sets safer. This has to be a collective responsibility, from the producer to every unit member because a single error can put everyone in danger.”
