AGo off stony-broke come out in Sandeep Singh’s edifice coordination compound in Mumbai on Thursday night and soon reports came that the producer was unhurt as his friends Ankita Lokhande and husband Vicky Jain came to his aid. While he was in the building during the time of the fire, he remained unscathed as he was on a different floor. Sharing details of the incident, Vicky Jain talks to us.Along with the fire mishap, pictures of Sandeep Singh in a hospital also did rounds on social media, giving an inkling that maybe he was hurt in the fire. However, Vicky clears the confusion. “There were two things that happened simultaneously. Sandeep had his hernia surgery on December 22, and he got discharged the day before and went to his house. He lives on the 14th floor, with our office also on the same floor, and the fire incident took place yesterday on the 12th floor due to a short circuit,” he shares. The fire was climbing from the 12th floor to the higher floors before it was controlled, but Vicky shares how a divine intervention happened for them even before the incident. “We have someone from our production live in the same building on the ninth floor. When we got Sandeep discharged and took him home, we shifted him there as due to the surgery, he couldn’t walk properly or bend down during his recovery process. If he would have been on the 14th floor, it would have been a completely different and dangerous situation,” he says.Ask him how he got to know about the fire and Vicky reveals, “When the incident happened, Sandeep immediately called me and Ankita and I rushed to him, and we took him to our house. Now the situation is better and work is going on in his building. But he is currently at our house.” Vicky informs that no damage to property took place at either Sandeep’s home or at their office. “While there is no damage to anything, the smoke did rise to the 14th floor. Sandeep has two pets in his office- Rocky and Rani, and they were in the office during the fire, along with their caretaker. Due to the smoke and the water poured on it, the wood swelled up and the gates weren’t opening. So, the caretaker called me saying he and the pets were locked inside and the smoke was coming in. Immediately we informed the fire brigade and they came, broke the door and rescued them. Thankfully, the fire was controlled in time,” he shares.Ask Vicky how Sandeep is doing now, and he shares that he is recovering well amid love and care. “You have to not let it all get to your head and disturb you. It was a very serious thing but Sandeep is mentally very strong. He is keeping himself positive,” he ends.
