Crew member Pramod, who worked as an Assistant Art Director on the sets of Savdhaan India, was killed in a bike accident that happened around 4.30 am on Saturday. The family is in uncontrollable tears at the Reay Road crematorium. A post mortem was conducted a few hours ago before Pramod’s body was handed over to his relatives.

Pramod was an AAD (Assistant Art Director) on the crime show Savdhaan India.

ETimes TV has it that Pramod was carrying yet another person from the unit, his helper, in the rear seat. The second person in question too was killed.
