Aside from her YGL involvement, Bhumi Pednekar is gearing up for the release of her next film, ‘Mere Husband Ki Biwi’, a romantic comedy where she stars alongside Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh.

As the team wraps up the final stages of filming and post-production, the film’s release is scheduled for February 21st.

However, the production faced an unfortunate setback recently during a song shoot at the Imperial Palace, Royal Palms. Reports indicate that a ceiling collapsed while the scene was being filmed, causing some injuries on set.

However, no major injuries were reported among the cast, including Bhumi, Arjun, and director Mudassar Aziz, who were all present at the time. The Director of Photography (DOP) suffered a fractured thumb, and a cameraman sustained an injury to his spine. Director Mudassar Aziz also got hurt during the incident.
