Earlier today, at least four senior military officials were feared dead in an Indian Air Force helicopter crash in Tamil Nadu's Coonoor on Wednesday afternoon in which Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat was travelling along with 13 others, as per an IANS report. Rawat and his wife Madhulika Rawat and others were in the chopper. He was going to the Defence Services Staff College in Wellington in Coonoor district to give a lecture scheduled at about 3 pm.


Reacting to the unfortunate incident, Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan has now prayed for the safety of everyone on-board. He has tweeted, "Extremely tragic news about the helicopter crash near Conoor. Praying for the safety of everyone on board."



Abhishek Bachchan and Anupam Kher extended their prayers as well. 

On the work-front, Varun has films like Ekkis, Jug Jugg Jeeyo, and Bhediya coming up. Dhawan and Kiara Advani on Sunday said they have finished shooting for the latest schedule of their upcoming film Jug Jugg Jeeyo. The duo took to Instagram and posted a picture from the film's set. They began filming its latest schedule in August. "Looking forward to the final schedule as we wrap this one!" Dhawan and Advani wrote on Instagram.

Backed by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, the family comedy-drama is directed by Raj Mehta, who made his directorial debut in 2019 with the hit comedy "ood Newwz.

Last December, the shooting of Jug Jugg Jeeyo was briefly halted after Mehta, Neetu and Dhawan tested positive for COVID-19.
