MUMBAI:
While we lavish praises on production houses and artistes for the
success for a particular film, little do we think about the dozens
of people who toil on the sets handling lights, camera and equipment
transporting them from one place to the other and even to great
heights.
A
recent accident that happened on the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's
film Ram Leela had the entire crew gasping for breath when a light-man
lost his balance and fell from a height.
It
so happened that the light-man Chandramani Vishwakarma who was working
on the lighting lost his balance and fell on a parapet from a height
of nearly 42 to 45 feet injuring his back and legs badly.
The
incident took place while the arrangements for the shoot were
being supervised by Bhansali himself.
After
the accident, he was admitted to Life Care Hospital at Goregaon.
Bhansali
has agreed to bear the entire medical expenses as well as pay
Vishwakarma around Rs 20,000 every month till he is fit and raring
to go.
