Fire destroys Jaipan Studio
Havoc at the Jaipan studio was reported due to a major fire that broke out on the 1st of Dec. Luckily no person is said to be harmed but lots of damage has occured.

According to an eyewitness a major fire was seen as he was talking over the phone. He said that there’s a storeroom and a bigger mixture production factory on the groundfloor and Jaipan Studio happens to be on the 1st and 2nd floor. The fire started from the ground floor and slowly started spreading to the other floors. He said the moment the fire was noticed the first thing done was to remove all the vehicles to make place for the fire brigade vans. After that lots of water was splashed through the entire place till the fire brigade came in and it took almost three hours to extinguish the entire fire.
