Bollywood Actor Salman Khan can’t seem to catch a break these days. First, his body double suffered a heart attack in the middle of a shoot, and now a terrible fire broke out at his gym. Thankfully, no one was injured in the incident.
According to various Indian media sources, the fire broke out on the first floor of the Salman Khan’s Delhi gym, not Mumbai as some sources once claimed, at around 10:15 PM on Thursday (August 21).
Delhi Police managed to reach the spot on time after receiving news of the fire. Later, the fire brigade worked on controlling fire, as everyone present was immediately evacuated from the spot.
There were no reports of casualties in the fire, as reported by the Indian news agency, PTI. However, the reason behind the fire has not been confirmed yet. Initially, the police assumed that the fire started due to a short circuit. An investigation is underway to find out the real cause.
The gym was part of a franchise under Salman’s own gym brand, which isn’t surprising given this is the actor known for being conscious about exercising and a long career in portraying characters who walk shirtless, showing off their well-toned body.
Even in his sixties, Salman exercises regularly to stay fit for the screen. If the role calls for it, he’ll subject his body to major changes, even losing weight. As such, he is spending time at the gym for his new movie.
But lately, things haven’t been going smoothly for Salman Khan. His body double suffered a heart attack in the middle of shooting their upcoming movie. This forced him to do most of the stunts himself, even the risky ones.
As of now, no one was injured nor killed in the fire, and police are investigating the actual cause of the fire and the damage it had wrought. One can only hope that Salman Khan’s trouble end from there.
