Kumar was a resident of Uttar Pradesh and was working on the film as a generator operator. It's reported that he was checking the water level in the generator when his muffler got entangled in the generator's fan and he got pulled in. Kumar sustained serious injuries on his head, and was rushed to Max Hospital in Dehradun where he was put on a ventilator. He passed away after a few hours. Kumar is survived by three brothers and a sister.
