Kamal Haasan starrer, Indian 2 accident 

The shoot of Indian 2 paused on February 19 after three crew members were killed on account of a tall crane crashing on the film's sets. Not just this, but the nine other crew members were injured during this accident. An official case was filed against the movie’s production house, Lyca Productions, which will be investigated by the CBI. Reportedly this accident was caused as the crane handler was not trained enough for such heavy machinery operation. The operator fled the spot at that movement and went into hiding until police arrested him a few days after the accident. Kamal Haasan and Kajal Aggarwal both shared posts on their respective Twitter handles stating that they missed the accident as the two had just left the particular spot.
