Aditya Chopra orders probe into fight that broke out on sets of ‘Pathan’

Mumbai: Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone’s much-awaited upcoming movie ‘Pathan’ is making headlines for the recent incident in which massive fight broke out between the director Siddharth Anand and his assistant. And now as per latest report, Aditya Chopra, who owns Yash Raj, has taken very serious note of the incident and even ordered to investigate it.

A source told Bollywood Hungama that such incident is something that has never happened at Yash Raj before. “Though the Pathan unit is trying to pass off the incident as a heated argument, there was no doubt about the exchange of physical blows. This is something that has never happened at Yash Raj before, and that too on the sets of a Shah Rukh Khan starrer, is a very sad comment on the decline of discipline in the workplace. Adi isn’t taking it lightly. He has ordered a probe into the incident,” says source.
