Border 2, starring Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahaan Shetty, is breaking records. While multiplexes continue to add more shows for the film, a theatre in Valsad had to cancel a screening,
and the reason behind the cancellation is quite shocking. As per reports, a major accident was narrowly averted at Rajhans Multiplex in Valsad after a portion of the auditorium ceiling collapsed just before the screening of Border 2.
As per Bollywood Hungama, a section of the POP (Plaster of Paris) ceiling located near the front of the screen suddenly fell inside Screen 1 just as the entry for Border 2’s 9 a.m. show was underway. This triggered panic at the location and led to the cancellation of the show, with everyone evacuated from the premises immediately.
Reportedly, as the incident occurred while moviegoers were still in the process of entering the hall, no injuries or casualties have been reported. Officials confirmed that everyone present at the site was evacuated safely soon after the incident occurred.
