A shoot for a reel turned tragic when a 16-year-old boy died after suffering an electric shock when he had climbed a stationary train wagon at Navi Mumbai's Nerul railway station, the police told PTI on Monday.
The boy has been identified as Arav Srivastava from Belapur in Navi Mumbai. He, along with his friends, went to the railway station on July 6, Vashi Government Railway Police (GRP) senior inspector Kiran Undre said.
"He climbed up a stationary train wagon loaded with garbage and started preparing reel," the official said.
While shooting on the train, the boy's hand came in contact with an overhead high-voltage cable and suffered a severe electric shock, causing him to fall down, he said.
Srivastava suffered multiple injuries on the head and other parts. He also sustained 60 per cent burns, the official said.
He was initially rushed to a local hospital. However, as his condition became critical, he was shifted to the Burns Hospital in Airoli. He battled for life for six days before succumbing to the injuries on Saturday night, Undre said.
The police have registered a case of accidental death and are conducting a probe into the incident, he said.
