MUMBAI: Mann Ki Awaz Pratigya 2 is a much-awaited show and the team is busy shooting for it. 

Now, report has it that the unit of the show was severely attacked by a swarm of honey bees when they were shooting at Ghoorpur, on the outskirts of Prayagraj on Friday. Reliable sources from the production house told Times Of India, “The incident happened when some kids among the spectators, watching the shooting, threw stones at a beehive that was in the vicinity, where the shoot was happening. This led to a severe attack of the honey bees on the production unit. The entire area was covered with a cloud of honey bees. Everyone rushed to safety, but more than ten technicians got injured in the incident. Two of the members of the production team had honey bees all over them and had to be rushed to the hospital.

Chetan Hansraj, who plays the antagonist in the show, was present during the incident. He said, "Never in my life have I seen a scene like this. There was this man all covered with bees running towards me during the shoot. Thankfully there was a water body near us and I kept on shouting to him to jump in it as the bees would have spared him then. He was in pain. In fact, three bees also stung me, one literally entered by ear. I managed to escape as I jumped into a car near-by. Bee stings are really painful, I remember getting stung by them as a child. Thankfully, first aid was given to all of us and then we shifted to a new location where we shot for the remaining part."
