According to multiple reports, the fire started during the shooting on the set and damaged some makeshift tents along with a few pieces of movie equipment. The crew members, who were present on site at the shooting location, were caught off guard by the sudden breakout. According to reports, one person from the film crew team suffered minor injuries in the accident and was taken to a nearby hospital immediately for care.

His condition is now stable, as per reports, and there is no serious threat to his health. The production team reportedly said that although some property damage occurred, the quick response helped prevent a larger accident.

About Spirit

Spirit is produced by Bhushan Kumar under T-Series and is believed to be a large-scale action drama. Prabhas is set to play an IPS officer in the film. Early promotional material, including an audio glimpse from the film, featured a dialogue exchange between Prabhas and actor Prakash Raj, hinting at the film's tone.

The film also stars an ensemble cast including Vivek Oberoi and Triptii Dimri, among others. According to reports, the team is taking additional precautions on set to maintain secrecy on key production elements, including the lead actor's look, amid concerns over potential leaks during filming.

Meanwhile, production activity for Spirit continues alongside other industry commitments. Recently, Prabhas and director Sandeep Reddy Vanga were seen attending a screening of Dhurandhar 2 at a theatre in Hyderabad. The screening was held at a venue owned by Allu Arjun. Visuals from the screening later surfaced on social media, following which Sandeep also praised Aditya Dhar for the film.
