The Hindu reports that a fireman was injured during the incident and was taken to a hospital in Jogeshwari where he was declared stable. The cause of the fire is yet to be determined. Jyotsna Rasam, senior police inspector of Vanrai Police Station was quoted as saying, “Investigation is under way to identify the source of the fire.” Chief fire officer PS Rahangdale also told the publication, “We have disconnected their electric and water supply. Action will be taken if lapses are found.”

Though there is no official word on the extent of the damage and financial losses that the company has sustained as a result, the godown reportedly contains costumes, props, memorabilia, books and other items related to Dharma Productions’ films dating from the ’80s till today, including some required for titles currently under production.

Dharma Productions recently bankrolled multi-starrer Kalank, which crashed at the box office. It has also backed Student of the Year 2, which stars Tiger Shroff, Ananya Panday and Tara Sutaria and releases on 10 May.
