However, the fire spread to other sets in the vicinity, including that of 'Teri Meri Dooriyan' and 'Ajooni'. The fire alert has been upgraded to Level 3 as it has spread to 4-5 studios due to wind flow, officials said.

Avinash Dhakne, Managing Director of the Film City, said no one was injured in the incident but the fire spread fast as the set had combustible material and the wind speed was high.

Eight fire engines of the Mumbai fire brigade were rushed to the spot and the dousing operation was underway, reported PTI quoting an official of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation.
