Talking about the horrifying experience that left everyone in shock Ashish shared, “It was a very intense accident sequence that took almost 5 days to complete. Although such scenes are carried out under expert supervision there are times when things get out of control. I’ve never experienced something like that and honestly was extremely scared. The incident happened in a fraction of second, but thankfully no one was hurt. Times like these make us realize how important it is to be under the protecting power of the almighty by praying and believing.”
