Manchu Lakshmi saved by Fishermen!

A tragic incident has struck the shooting of ‘Gundello Godaari.’ This could have been fatal for Manchu family, if fishermen around haven’t been there. Yes, we are here by informed of Manchu Lakshmi Prasanna saving her life by a whisker getting drowned away into the waters of turbulently flowing Godavari River. All this was happened on the sets of ‘Gundello Godaari.’

A small hamlet setting of 170 huts was erected near the village of Chinchinada, lying on the banks of Godavari River. An artificial reservoir with 20 gates was built for shooting purpose. Reservoir was totally filled with water till the brim. Nearly 20 cameras were installed at different locations to shoot a flood scene. It was mid night 12: 45 yesterday when director made all the arrangements for canning the risky shot of Manchu Lakshmi and Aadi Pinisetti engulfed into the flood waters. When gates were opened on the call of director, the flow of water was so fierce that Lakshmi and Aadi have really inundated. 

The team of nearly 250 members on the spot stood in helpless situation with Lakshmi crying for help as she is totally asphyxiated. Thanks to local fishermen who reacted urgently and saved Lakshmi, Aadi. By that time, the two were almost submerged into 400 feet depth of Godavari Waters. Better, Lakshmi should stop such brave heroics or take enough precautionary measures before playing with life.
