A cameraman was seriously injured when a crane gave way and fell to the ground today during the shooting of a new Tollywood film in which ‘Natasimham’ Balakrishna is playing the lead role.

The shooting was taking place at Yarada Hills in the Visakhapatnam district when the crane developed a mechanical problem all of a sudden and came crashing down to the ground from a considerable height in a fraction of the second and injuring the cameraman  seriously. The injured cameraman was immediately hospitalized.

First, everyone thought that Balakrishna was injured in the incident causing concern to his fans but later on it was revealed that he was safe. Reports indicate that this new untitled movie of Balakrishna has been facing serious problems ever since the shooting began.

The art department has set up a big set for the movie after digging out a lake near a village raising eyebrows and inviting a controversy. Even before that controversy died down, the film unit had to cope up with this tragedy today.
