Suresh Gupta, the president of AICWA, has written to Maharashtra&#8217;s Chief Minister, urging the filing of a police complaint against Bhansali and seeking a compensation of \u20b91 crore for the worker&#8217;s family along with a thorough investigation into the incident.<\/p>\n<p>Reports indicate that 42-year-old carpenter Chandradhari Singh Yadav lost his life due to an electric shock while working during the early hours of June 17, 2026. He leaves behind a wife and two young daughters. Gupta emphasized that the unfortunate event highlights a lack of safety measures on film sets.<\/p>\n<p>In his statements, Gupta expressed deep concern, saying, \u201cOn that night, a worker lost his life because the necessary safety protocols were not followed. If Sanjay Leela Bhansali had adhered to safety guidelines, this tragic incident could have been avoided.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gupta also mentioned that this is not an isolated incident. He referred to past tragedies on Bhansali&#8217;s film sets, including two fatalities during the filming of <em>Devdas<\/em> and another death during the production of <em>Padmaavat<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>He argued that it is crucial for the film industry to prioritize the safety of its workers. \u201cWhy is it always the workers who suffer? They are the ones who face the risks without sufficient safety measures in place. We are demanding that a murder case be filed because of the repeated negligence observed on set,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>As of now, there has been no official comment from Sanjay Leela Bhansali or his team regarding these serious allegations.
