In a shocking turn of incidents, a man working on the sets of Shahid Kapoor's upcoming venture 'Kabir Singh' lost his life during the shooting of the film in Mussoorie. As per media reports, a 30-year-old man named Ramu from Muzaffarnagar is said to have lost his life after being electrocuted. Media reports suggest Ramu was working with a generator company in Premnagar area of Dehradun and was in charge of the functioning of the generators on the sets of the film. 

Reportedly, a police officer confirmed the news and stated that the mishap took place when Ramu was checking the system and his muffler got stuck in the fan that eventually pulled him inside. He was rushed to the hospital immediately following the incident, however, he was declared dead. The police officer further stated that Ramu's family has been informed about his sudden demise. 

Surprisingly, the hotel authorities have refuted claims of any such accident occurring on their premises, and thus, the validation of the whole incident is unclear.
