The Story in Brief
Director and actor M A Nishad was injured while filming an upcoming movie in Ooty after a wooden floor plank gave way beneath him inside an old British bungalow. He fell about four feet, with the total depth estimated at six feet. Nishad told Onmanorama that he injured his hand and thigh but suffered no fractures.
He was treated at Coonoor Military Hospital and discharged. The cast and crew, including Khushbu, were present during the incident. Nishad completed the day’s shoot before seeking treatment and has since returned to the set for the remaining portions. The film is directed by Sadath Sainudheen and produced under the Ooty Williams and Catering banner.
The Indian Opinion
A film-set accident should not become either a sensational stunt story or a casual dismissal of workplace safety. Nishad’s injuries were reportedly limited, but an unsafe plank inside an old bungalow caused a fall into a deeper space. Productions need proper location checks before actors and crew enter such buildings. The useful test is simple: did the team inspect and secure every walkable surface before filming resumed?
